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.

On Monday 28 July 1986, a 25-year-old real estate agent called Susannah "Suzy" Lamplugh disappeared without trace in the middle of the working day, having left the office of her employer Sturgis & Sons in Fulham Road, London SW6, to drive the short distance to nearby Shorrolds Road (pictured above) for a house-showing appointment.
She took her keys and purse with her, but left her handbag in the office. Her office diary recorded the essential details of the appointment: '12:45 Mr. Kipper – 37 Shorrolds Road O/S', the appended abbreviation meaning that the meeting point was outside the property.
The alarm was raised after Suzy missed an appointment later in the day and failed to return to the office. At 10 pm that evening, her white Ford Fiesta car was found abandoned outside a property for sale in Stevenage Road, about 2 km from Shorrolds Road. The vehicle, B396 GAN, was unlocked and Suzy's purse was in the door pocket. The ignition key was missing.
From the very start, the police investigation was hampered by the lack of physical evidence. And in all the years since, no further hard evidence has emerged to help solve the case. Despite the many lines of enquiry that the police have subsequently pursued, what happened to Suzy Lamplugh on that July day in 1986 remains a mystery. She was officially declared dead, presumed murdered, in 1994.
