What remains of Perth's tram network?
The Perth tram network ran from 1899 until 1958 and included an expansive system that reached all corners of the metropolitan area. In this video, I set out and document all that remains decades later. This video includes remains in South Perth (the ferry tram), Mount Lawley, Victoria Park, Perth, Yanchep National Park and, of course, the Perth Electric Tramway Society in Whiteman Park.
