About This File

The first version of this tram was made by Canvas.

It is base on Oppie's Swiss freight engine.

 

I have just modifed the pantograph on the roof.

 

This is released with permission from Canvas.

 

The GLR mod, which gives you the tram/lightrail tracks, is include in the Network Addon Mod also known as NAM. This can be downloaded for the section: Modds & Downloads on Simtropolis.com. You find an overview of all the GLR-Stations here.

 

Note: Only one GLR/EL skin may be used to prevent mixing of trains.

good to see some local stuff, the w class trams aren't really used much anymore, because of breakdowns, but they are for the city circle trams.

thanks for the kind remards, credit must be given to Oppie, whose Swiss freight train is in fact the base model for the tram. Also, kindest thanks to vester_DK for improving and releasing the tram.

The tram looks great, however I am reliably informed by my tram expert father that melbourne trams are green and yellow! I think your weathering or digital photo is inaccurate. Can you do variations of colour? Would really love a red with cream upper to match the bus I downloaded. 9/10

Well just seen a pictures from the danish tram-museum, which has the same colors. I have been thinking of doing a red with cream top tram, but at first it would be like a tram prop for a tram museum, coming out from SFBT. (Have a look in my thread: VDK Light Rail Train Production, page 4)

I don't know why I only found this WONDERFUL W Class Tram now but I wished I did earlier. This is fantastic. What I have always wanted for my cities. Having been one one myself, I know how special these trams are to Melbourne. 10/10

I just want to point out that canvas did the the ground work, I just did the modification of the pantograph (the thing on the top that draws the electricity from the wires)

People using the compressed folder in windows explore might experience problems. Try use WinZip or WinRar to open the file.

This is a great tram. It is the default tram for my extensive GLR network of light rail lines. I have had a problem latelly though. The trams don't show up in the game. I reinstalled and still no trams. I don't have any other trams in the plug ins folder. Any idea what the problem may be? Great worlk. Thanks for sharing it with us. Carl Ramsey
