Jeez you're taking me back with this one Alex. I remember riding the combinos on this route back in 2007/8 when as a young 7 or 8 year old me & my nan would take a ride down to St Kilda from the city. I remember the 'bumblebees' too, my nan took a newspaper clipping out about them coming here we were very excited for them. Honestly I wish they'd kept them in that livery. That was back when you could get a seat on the route, nowadays it most certainly is the busiest route. This would have been recorded at about the time my dad was delivering to the supermarket next to St Kilda Station, that was actually an IGA back then it's been a Woolworths Metro since about 2015. I didn't ride a combino for years until about 2016 when, on a trip to Carlton with my mates one day we rode one on one of the routes going up Swanston St. Wow this video brings back memories, thanks for re-editing and re-uploading it.
This is a 1080p re-upload of my original Trams on the St Kilda Light Rail video uploaded back in 2013. It was one of my most popular videos at over 96 thousand views. This particular re-upload was requested by a viewer. If there's any videos that you want me to re-edit and re-upload let me know and I can consider it.
as much as it sucks that the 96 is now pretty much served by just 1 tram class, with not much variety, I don't think anybody misses the D2s with their shitty ride quality and low number of seats

I love this video. Thank you friend.
wonderful spotting there mate
I'm showing my age when I say I remember riding the trains along there.🙁
I want tram, I miss it so much in my town💙😿💕
I love the old 96 trams, seeing the three classes on the same route was really cool, but riding the d2 was definitely not cool
I loved the livery but they weren't comfortable
d1 was worse
A's don't run on route 96
as much as it sucks that the 96 is now pretty much served by just 1 tram class, with not much variety, I don't think anybody misses the D2s with their shitty ride quality and low number of seats
Anyone for junkie town
