G type Adelaide tram
The G type Adelaide tram was a class of four single truck Birney trams manufactured by JG Brill Company. They arrived in completely knocked down being assembled by the Municipal Tramways Trust.
They were used exclusively on the isolated Port Adelaide network mainly used on the lightly trafficked Rosewater line to either Semaphiore or Largs. After this closed in 1935, all were sold to the State Electricity Commission of Victoria and placed in service in Geelong. In 1947 they were transferred to Bendigo. One was scrapped in 1956 after an accident, the other three remaining in service until the system closed in April 1972.Preservation
