So the H-Type tram could be returning to Adelaide very soon!
We're likely to be in for a big surprise! :D
For starters, my avatar is the well-known Adelaide Aquatic Centre insignia from 1989.

So are the old H-Class back in 'special' service again? I remember them doing a short stint a few years ago, running them on an hourly Saturday / Sunday timetable?

It's always been envisaged that a City Loop will be built. When it will happen is anyone's guess.
