In Melbourne, in addition to newer types of trams in use such as the Citadis, the Combino and the middle-aged A, B and Z class trams, older W-class trams (of the dropcentre design referred to above) remain in service as a major form of public transport as well as a popular tourist attraction.
Trams in Adelaide were all but wiped out in 1958 with the exception of the single Glenelg Tram line, which links the city centre with the seaside suburb of Glenelg and operates substantially along its own right of way and continues to run to this day as public transport.
Tram services also existed in Johannesburg (where the suburban railway to Boksburg, opened in 1890, was also called the Rand Tram), Pretoria and Durban but were replaced by petrol, diesel and trolley bus systems by the early 1960s.
