From the list homepage https://tdu.to:

"Trams DownUnder is a Google Groups discussion group/mailing list
pertaining to trams, trolleys, light rail and urban transport in Australia
and New Zealand. Included are such locations as Melbourne, Bendigo,
Ballarat, Sydney, Christchurch and many more. Discussion of historical
aspects of present and past operations is especially encouraged. Also
included: Australian trams in the United States and elsewhere."

I take it that emphasis on the political background is out of place (as is
discussion of internal-combustion-powered bus operations per se) but
cursory mention of those factors as context for the main focus is OK. For
example, someone might offer a summary of pre-electric services on the
Glenelg line, to compare what was offered and the level of patronage; but
not go into detailed discussion of locomotives and rolling stock.

That's how I see it. I hope I'm at least broadly right.
