The tram was decorated as a garden for the 1995 Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show and operated on the City Circle route. It was immediately withdrawn from service after the exhibition closed and stored at the Newport railway workshops where I understand it still remains today.
The tram is seen here at the Spencer St. turnback stub at the La Trobe St. corner in December 1995 while the crew took a break.

Depicting passengers on the City Circle SW6 tram number 971 in Latrobe Street, Melbourne, August 2008. My intention was to depict that outside the windows, Melbourne goes by at a different pace, while in the tram, people go into their own worlds, forming a microcosm of the city for the short while they are in there. That's my daughter, Susan, with the smile.
Now in the private collection of Ashleigh Thomas.

SW6 971 in Flinders Street, Melbourne, on the City Circle route. A more modern low-floor tram heads down to St Kilda Road in front of Flinders Street Station. I painted this from my imagination so proportions are probably very wrong.
