Tram-to-Train at South Yarra - November 2020

Описание: Starting onboard an A2 class tram, heading south on Route 78. I get off at Toorak Road, which must be one of the more dangerous tram stops in Melbourne - there is no safety zone, and passengers have to cross two traffic lanes. Sure enough a motorist clearly doesn't know the rules and starts moving just as I'm about to walk in front of their car. After passengers are clear and the tram doors are closed the car is clear to proceed, but is somehow confused by this as well and remains stationary. Clearly this driver needs to watch my video about passing stopped trams:    • Driving with Trams - Passing at a Tram Stop  

We then walk along Toorak Road, alongside tram Route 58, before arriving at South Yarra station. We descend the ramp to platforms 4 & 5 - which are the Up Caulfield Local and Down Caulfield Through lines respectively - most commonly used as Up Pakenham/Cranbourne and Down Frankston. We see a few sparks pass through including some empty car moves. I then board an X'trap heading for Frankston. Shortly after departure we get a view of the southern portal of the Melbourne Metro Tunnel, which is currently under construction. Filmed Wednesday 25th of November 2020.
