​Sydney Tramway Festival
Sunday February 22nd
Step back in time at the Sydney Tramway Festival, featuring historic trams, heritage bus rides, and a great day out for all ages.
One of our vintage Sydney double decker bus will be providing rides from the Tram Museum to Sutherland. Built in the late 1940s and early 50s, the post-war 'deckers' were often used on 'feeder-services' bringing people from outer-Sydney closer to the main tram system. Our bus will be providing the same service all these decades later, taking you right up to the tram stop!
