Our main priority is that our volunteers are safe, so every one of them has COVID-19 awareness training.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Passengers will be picked up and dropped off from the museum, and the shop will be open for ticketing so conductors won\u2019t have to handle money or tickets on board.<\/p>\n<p>Mindful of four-square metres per person, small trams can fit six people, medium can seat eight and the large trams, 10.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a very personal, frequent tram ride when we run it. We\u2019ll be insisting people are sanitised and leave their contact details. We\u2019ll have all those facilities in place, and the tram will get a clean before a new group boards,\u201d Mr Waugh said.<\/p>\n<p>While the museum and tramway has been closed, two or three volunteers have been working on tram maintenance a day or two per week, getting ahead on projects. The workshop formally reopened on Tuesday, 30 June.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve done a lot of work on the electrical systems, they\u2019ve been redoing the substation and some of the power controls. That has been really good because normally it\u2019s hard to shut everything down while you\u2019re pulling all that apart.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had Central Power come in, they straightened some of the poles out on the street along the track. That was a major undertaking with about six trucks,\u201d Mr Waugh said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt our off-site storage area, there\u2019s a new shed, so they\u2019ve been working in there, putting up shelving, and doing preliminary restoration on a W-Class tram we got from Melbourne.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also throughout the COVID downtime, there\u2019s been some large-scale Tetris inside the museum, with reshuffling of trams.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA crew of two to three blokes have been completing repair on a tram where a part of it had been sent off to Bendigo.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_69767\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-69767\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-69767\" src=\"https:\/\/timesnewsgroup.com.au\/ballarat\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/07\/Horse-Tram-300x227.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"227\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-69767\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTM&#8217;s horse tram, built in 1887. Photo: FILE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThe tram\u2019s been up on jacks, suspended in the air, they\u2019ve put the parts back under the tram and have re-joined it to its wheels again. People may have seen a tram out on the track in the last two weeks for a test run,\u201d Mr Waugh said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne tram has been sent off to Bendigo for repairs, and the boys had to escort that up on the truck. They had it towed through the streets of Bendigo by a tractor, so they got very excited by that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For some of BTM\u2019s volunteers, it\u2019s been frustrating not to share the tourist attraction as normal. The museum\u2019s 1887 horse tram didn\u2019t get a run this year, the oldest working tram in Australia.<\/p>\n<p>But for other volunteers, they\u2019ve simply enjoyed the opportunity to take a break.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome are itching to get back, and some have been coming up here from Melbourne to work on the trams and drive trams for over 40 years, so they\u2019ve discovered there is a life outside the tram shed,\u201d Mr Waugh said.<\/p>\n<p>2021 marks 50 years since the trams stopped operating throughout the city, and 50 years since the museum started, so planning has begun for celebrations.<\/p>\n<p>Most trams that travel along Lake Wendouree are over 100 years old, originally from the streets of Melbourne. They were sold to Ballarat between the 1930s and 50s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a couple that have done over one million miles in the streets of Ballarat, and that\u2019s not counting probably the one million miles they did in Melbourne before they came here,\u201d Mr Waugh said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re still being preserved, and it\u2019s the best spot to come and ride really historic vehicles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Visit <a href=\"http:\/\/btm.org.au\"><strong>btm.org.au<\/strong><\/a>.
