Captured by RICHARD JONES where SW6.919 is viewed standing in Sturt Street at the City Road intersection, along with many other trams, having been diverted from St Kilda Road and terminated short of the city due to the Moomba procession in March 1970.
This section of the South Melbourne Beach line was closed when the diversion via Nolan Street opened a few days later.

A memory from my Melbourne years when in August 1993 SW6.965 started carrying AOA for Australian Air Express (First Flight) in what was to be its last advertising stint.
Previous advertising stints were:
1988
August: Advertising Maxwells
1989
February: Advertising Channel 7
1990
April: Advertising Bushells Tea
1991
June: Advertising Daimaru
1993
February: Advertising Australia Post
In October 2005 SW6.965 was restored to original condition to be presented to Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark and Princess Mary. Then on Thursday, 10th November, 2005, SW6.965 was presented to the Danish Consul General, Jorgen Mollegaard, by the Victorian Transport Minister, Peter Batchelor, at a function at Preston Workshops.
On Tuesday, 23rd May, 2006, there was the official inauguration of "the royal tram" into the Danish Tramway Museum's fleet. The vehicle is owned by HRH Crown Prince Frederik and HRH Crown Princess Mary. The Danish Tramway Museum is located in the town of Skjoldenæsholm, about 65 kilometres southwest of Copenhagen, Denmark. The Danish Tramway Historical Society, was founded on 8 February 1965. The Society's aims are to extend knowledge of public transport in an apolitical and idealistic manner.
The tram is northbound on Swanston St. at the Little Collins St. corner. Photographer unknown.
A view of 965 operating at the Danish museum can be found at:

A very decent menu, rather pricy, at this posh gastropub with many many beers. They have such a good range of beers, they've suggested matches for all the food here. At The White Horse, Parsons Green.

Car 889 (Class SW6, MMTB Preston Workshops, 1943) works Line 42 outward in High Street, Kew.
This location is just east of Kew Junction. The curved track in the foreground has been relaid as a tangent segment . . . perhaps to reduce interference of motor traffic by trams.
1980 June 29.

13th September 2012 at Imperial Wharf, London SW6.
Imperial Wharf Jazz Festival (free event).
Country: Britain & Cuba (British resident). Style: Jazz - Modern.
Lineup: Courtney Pine (soprano sax/EWI), Omar Puente (violin), Cameron Pierre (g), Darren Taylor (b), Robert Fordjour (d).
Courtney Pine was born in London to Jamaican parents. He came to the fore with the Jazz Warriors in the mid 1980s, and has since led his own bands. In recent years this has included the Cuban violinist Omar Puente, who I photographed in a very different musical context at the Celebrating Sanctuary Festival: www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/sets/72157627027385999/.
