On 22 December 2023, it was proposed that this article be moved to W class Melbourne tram. The result of the discussion was no consensus, though there was a suggestion to add redirects from the unhyphenated versions, which received no objection and will be created following closure. |
There is SW5 and SW6 trams, they don't seem to be W class trams to me, Vicsig.net agrees and that's what most of this melbourne tram wiki is based on. Has anyone really even thought about this? wiesel ( talk) 15:24, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
Melbourne #756 is in use (in modified form as a biodiesel and battery powered hybrid) in Savannah, Georgia as Dottie the River Street Streetcar. The Georgia websites with stories may mention "W5" but do not distinguish between "W5" and "SW5" (a term not mentioned). The video narration at dot implies that 756 was built between 1935 and 1939. 69.119.27.73 ( talk) 00:19, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
For completeness this article should also cover the W1, SW2, W3, W4, W5, CW5 (built with equipment from the ex-Prahran and Malvern Tramways Trust C class) and the one off W8. 203.7.140.3 ( talk) 01:46, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
2 of these trams are going to run in Franschhoek, South Africa. Imported for R2.5m each.

Hi, I would like to request that the name of this article be renamed. The actual 'W-Class' is not referring to W,W1,W2,SW2,W3,W4 etc but only to the W itself, a design very different to for example the W7. The correct term for all of these trams (W,W1,W2,SW2,W3,W4,CW5,W5,W6,W7,W8) is 'W-series'. Although there may not be any links to this online, this is because since the 1990s, the trams in service have been pretty uniform (SW5-W8 design is pretty much the same on the outside), and so people have simply began referring to them lazily as the W-Class. Please talk to me about yes/no for this. MetroManMelbourne ( talk) 21:55, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
The Mount Buller link - I'm unsure if it is " Mount Buller (Victoria)", the mountain, or " Mount Buller, Victoria", the town or even " Mount Buller Alpine Resort" -- ThylacineHunter ( talk) 22:48, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi all,
There is a list and map of trams including W class trams which were sold by VicTrack in 2018 [1] [2]. Sorry that I can’t help at the moment with adding references and information regarding this as I’m busy with other commitments, but if anyone would like to help, please feel free.

I am proposing to remove the hyphen from the title of this tram article, as the official nomenclature from the Department of Transport and Planning is not to have hyphens in tram class names. Examples include on their official website [3], the Melbourne Tram Plan [4] and the PTV website [5]. Other common unofficial sources like Vicsig also do not have a hyphen. I'm also proposing to change all the other Melbourne tram class article names in a similar manner, any feedback welcome! Takerlamar ( talk) 00:05, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
