The Melbourne Tram Museum occupies the historic Hawthorn Tram Depot and preserves more than twenty restored trams, including early 20th-century cars and the city's familiar W-class trams. The depot building itself adds to the visit, with its old industrial setting and tramway atmosphere.
It is a specialist museum, but a good one for anyone interested in Melbourne's street life, transport history, or the trams that still help define the city.
