SW6 Class tram 866 trundles towards the camera as it makes its way along Flinders St, flanked by the Flinders Street Station clock tower, pictured between King St and Spencer St. The tram being 75 years old has seen much change in its time running along Melbourne streets, most notably in this case the addition of the Melbourne Aquarium to the right of the tram in the 1990s and the removal of the flyover bridge on Flinders Street in the early 2000s.

Country: United States - New Orleans. Style: R and B.
Lineup: Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews (trombone/trumpet/v), Tim McFatter (tenor sax), Dan Oestricher (baritone sax), Pete Murano (g), Mike Ballard (bass g), Joey Peebles (d), Dwayne Williams (congas).
For their encore they swapped instruments, and lined up as: Ballard (trumpet), Williams (trombone), Murano (tenor sax), Peebles (g), McFatter (bass g), Andrews (d), Oestricher (congas).>/i>
Troy Andrews was born in Treme in 1986. He is 16 years younger than his older brother, James Andrews. He took up the trombone at a very early age (his first out of town gig with James was aged 4). It was soon after that his brother gave him his moniker, so it has nothing to do with his current height. Aged 7 he lead his first band (Tiny Toones Brass Band), followed by the Trombone Shorty Brass Band. Later he was part of the New Birth Brass Band. Troy Andrews moved away from brass Band music with Orleans Avenue, initially formed with a number of fellow students at NOCCA (New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts).

SW6.925 displaying art work titled Melbourne Dreamscape by James Cattell at Waterfront City on Thursday, 23rd October 2014, and recorded for prosterity by Ian Green.
The highlight of my 2007 trip to Denmark was a steam-hauled railtour from Copenhagen to Hvalsø, with a bus link to Skjoldenæsholm Tram Museum.
The museum's principal running line is a 1.5km long standard-gauge route, running from the museum and depot to the terminus seen here, which is situated on a balloon loop.
The tram seen here is Melbourne SW6 class No. 965, built in 1950. This was donated to the Museum by the State of Victoria in 2005, to commemorate the marriage of HRH Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark and HRH Crown Princess Mary (the latter a former Melbourne resident).
To date, this is the only Australian rail vehicle I have ever traveled on!

The SW6 version of Andrew Nolan seemed to be a little more outgoing than the original. Also, he dropped the "Lad" off of his name. But just like the original Ferro Lad, this Andrew could turn his body to iron.

18th July 2012 at Under the Bridge, London SW6.
Country: United States. Style: R and B.
Lineup: "Dr John" (Mac Rebennack) (v/p/organ/g/percussion), Jon Cleary (p/keyboard/g/percussion/v), John Fohl (g), David Barard (bass g), Raymond Weber (d), Derek Huston (baritone sax), Sarah Morrow (trombone).
Mac Rebennack grew up in the Third Ward. After playing on numerous New Orleans R&B recordings, he made his commercial breakthrough in 1968 as Dr John, the Night Tripper. In recent years he has mostly reverted to a more traditional style R & B. The band included long time colleague David Barard, with Raymond Weber (until recently of Dumpstaphunk) replacing the late Roscoe Ernest. John Fohl has been around for a few years since he replaced Bobby Broom. For this European tour Jon Cleary (who leads his own band and performs with Bonnie Raitt), Derek Huston (once of the Iguanas) and Sarah Morrow (once of the Ray Charles band) made up the Lower 911.

Melbourne SW6 916 is out for a test run on the J line, seen here approaching 18th Street. The 916 has been undergoing restoration for the past decade, and this run may mark one of its furthest forays from the yard in many years.
