Featured Trams
Tram No. 103
L class tram No. 103 was built in 1921 by James Moore & Sons Pty Ltd as one of six trams numbered 101 to 106. The L Class were ordered by the Prahran and Malvern Tramways Trust in 1919, but were not delivered until after the formation of the Melbourne and Metropolitan Tramways Board. When built, the L Class dropcentre section differed in that it had four doorway openings, similar to the Adelaide F and F1 Type trams. The dropcentre sections were rebuilt during the early 1930’s to resemble the layout of the W2 Class trams, with the dropcentre floor also being raised slightly during the mid 1940’s to equalise the step heights into the tram. This tram is currently on loan to the Ballarat Tramway Museum and can be viewed by visiting the museum in the Lake Wendouree gardens.
