Seventy years ago Sydney had one of the biggest tram networks of any city in the world.Then in a spectacular own goal it was all ripped up. Not a single line was left. Melbourne on the other hand retained its huge network and expanded it. Now it has the biggest tram network of any city in the world.
Sydney has realised the error of its ways and is building a light rail system but construction is very costly, very disruptive and slow. The good news is that it proving very popular. A case of better late than never.
