Ahhh, the old days in Brisbane. What memories we had. Rock 'n Roll George cruising the streets in his FJ Holden. Catching a tram down to the Valley Baths for a lunch time swim, etc, etc, etc. Life was so simple than today.

Brings back beautiful memories of me as a working girl in the city travelling to and fro every work day. Somehow it was relaxing to sit on the tram and travell ...read a book or knit or just gaze out the window....thanks for sharing! Nostalgia ❤

l remember getting on one of these pale blue trams as a very young person. l only have one recollection. But l did think they were wonderful

Thank you for keeping alive the memories of our youth. A music track and / or appropriate sound would add affect. It is a shame that we did not have the wide streets of Melbourne or we might still have a tram system to enjoy - what a loss from our history. Many was the time I waited with my mother in Queen Street for for our tram home among many lined up down that street. Thank you for your effort.

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing. I was not fortunate enough to see Brisbane with the trams running. My dad and I planned a trip there back in 1968, but it never eventuated. For quite some years during the early 1960's, Brisbane had Australia's newest trams with the Phoenix cars. It was quite a shock, when they suddenly decided to scrap them. Maybe one day, trams may return there as modern light rail, like in the Gold Coast. We can always hope, I suppose.

Thankyou Ron the Camera man for uploading such nastagia of Brisbane, Wow theres allot going on there ive got Google Maps and Streetvie comparing over there and today and its remarkable how the Brisbane Inner Busway was dug out from the then Queen St busy Tram intersection. unfortunately video footage such as this can go to a museum in Canberra where no one visits hardly or if they do its always rush rush watch 4 mins and go. putting such nostalgia on the tube to be viewed maybe with some old time music i think its the future of preserving our past. cheers.

👍🏻 great video .

Of all the states that need trams the most itd be Brisbane. Getting around is such a pain when its not flat.

Pre Brisvegas. Nice footage.

Sometimes I used to get the Tam to Queen Street and my mum Worked at The GPO, So I'd meet her when she finished at Twn PM. That was when Brissy was just a big country town. A Great palce to live

Brisbanes (current) town planners would be so uninteresting at a party

That near accident at 6.20 with the Mercedes 😮

A trolleybus in Brisbane at 5:05! Who would of though we’d be bring electric busses back in 2024!

This is a great video 😍 what years?

7:18 Dodge AT4 truck with Island Cab, for carrying longer items.

Trams sucked anyways. At the time, they were also talks about ripping up the Railways as Mayor Clem Jones supports car dependency and believed that cars where the future. Autombiles were essentially seen as pods back in the day. luckilly, we did not loose the trains and instead electrified them
