Everything about The Sydney Tramway Museum totally explained
The
Sydney Tramway Museum is an operating tramway museum, located in
Loftus in the southern suburbs of
Sydney,
Australia. Sydney Tramway Museum is the trading name of the South Pacific Electric Railway (SPER).
The museum was officially opened at its original site at the edge of the Royal National Park by NSW Deputy Premier Pat Hills in 1965. It was subsequently relocated to its new, larger site which opened on March 19, 1988. Besides an extensive collection of
trams from Sydney and other Australian and world cities, the tramway museum includes two running lines radiating from the museum. One line runs 1.5 km north almost to
Sutherland railway station, paralleling a suburban highway in a way typical of Sydney's previous tram system.
The second utilises a former railway branch line to penetrate 2 km into the
Royal National Park that flanks Sydney's southern boundary. This line was previously an extension of
CityRail's Illawarra railway line, but the suburban railway line closed in 1991, and
Waterfall replaced the station as terminus for the line.
