This is your first Tram Series of Strolls. The aim is to find & follow all our old tram lines from City to terminus. There are not many of them, but some can be hard to find.

Our line today is actually a through one – Kalinga to Rainworth – going trough The Valley & CBD. Our Stroll today will start at The Valley and go through the CBD by Adelaide St, along Geroge St to Milton Rd and up Baroona Rd to Rainworth Rd below the Gov’s home.

This is all footpath walking, as all the Tram Routes are, and Strolling through the CBD just before peak hour, we get to observe all those poor souls going home from a thing called “work”.

After we reach the terminus, the Stroll will continue onto Auchenflower Rail Station via all the back streets I can find

Come with me on this monumental groundbreaking investigation of our old tram routes – our ghosts of the past.
