Reinventing trams

Tram 807 made the long journey to its new home, the dedicated Men’s Shed members have been diligently restoring it with the help of local volunteers.  

A historic W-Class tram held in storage away from public view for nearly 30 years has been lovingly transformed into a boutique B&B on the edge of the Yarra Valley. 

Works to expand Bendigo Tramways are complete – increasing capacity to restore historic trams and securing ongoing skilled jobs in central Victoria. 

A retired W Class tram is now a quiet haven for school children wanting a break from the hubbub of the playground.
