HK and Sydney

There's a point, does Hong Kong count as down under? Of course, it usually
wouldn't, but it is closer to us here in Australia than it is to some
places! I just spent some time there and the system is fantastic, quite
worth the effort of getting there. It is probably the best example of a busy
tramway system doing what it was built for. Does anyone have plans of the
cars as they are today, I wouldn't mind having a go at one in HO?

In other things, does anyone have any info as to what remains in Sydney of
their original system (other than the fine collection at Loftus, of course)?
I've seen the bus area around Randwick racecourse, the old ROW to La Perouse
and a few shelters here and there, as well as some of the depots (Newtown
being the most interesting, it looks as if it was closed up and abandoned
years ago). Are there any lengths of track visible in streets anywhere?
