This photo popped up in my Facebook feed. Nice looking tram.  It was credited to "Trambook" and shows G Class 7001 under test in Elizabeth Street in the early hours of 30 December.

I'm reminded again of this meme that's been doing the rounds on social media for some time.

Here's one as shared by Minister Williams on facebook and Reddit.

The tram is at the new platform stop in Victoria St near the market.

Thanks to my source for linking me to the image.

Mal Rowe - who reckons 7001 has passed the platform / floor height test.
