04-Oct-2021: E2.6100 rolled into service on Friday 1 October 2021, completing the order for these 100 Bombardier-built Flexity Swift-based trams.
Because
of
lockdown,
I
exercised
in
St
Kilda
this
morning.
It's
spring
in
Melbourne
which
means
"if
you
don't
like
the
weather,
wait
five
minutes".
Dark clouds scudding across the sky with bursts of sunshine at all the wrong times made photography a little challenging.
E2.6100 heads along the Esplanade on route 96 nearing the terminus in Acland Street past Marli Place built in 1854 and one of only three surviving relatively nineteenth century residential buildings in The Esplanade.
