IIRC the existing plan to get these extra 4 trams they've ordered running is to have them terminate at Lilyfield. Should be fine for 4 of the trams to do that, but if they order more again it'll stop being a workable solution and they'll have to take the plunge and upgrade the line.tonyp wrote: ↑Wed Jun 14, 2023 11:22 amThe next step before that can happen is to upgrade the capacity of the line and rectify the silly mistakes they made when they built it - notably the fact that Central has the capacity to turn a tram around every 30 seconds, while Dulwich Hill can only turn one around every 4-5 minutes. In theory, some could reverse at Lilyfield, but I'm not sure that they have the capability to do that like clockwork.
IIRC Dulwich Hill terminus + power supply limits the line to 6 or 8 tph (don't remember which).
If they order more (and eventually they'll have to), they should order them with the same door configuration as on the PLR.
Not exactly. There's a great political push to built the Parramatta Light Rail, especially stage 2.
