VINTAGE W CLASS TRAM

A UNIQUE LOCATION FOR FILM, PHOTOGRAPHY, WORKSHOPS, MEETINGS & MORE - BOOK NOW

Bighouse Arts is so proud to home one of Melbourne’s iconic vintage W-class trams!

Rescued from the dusty storage sheds of the Newport Railway Workshops, tram 877 is enjoying it’s retirement years resting in a quiet street of Coburg North. After a bit of a facelift and most of the dust from the past 80 years or so cleaned off, she’s looking fresh while still oozing with charm and history. Our beloved tram has found a new lease of life as a unique venue for photoshoots, workshops, meetings and mini events.

This is James Chandler, the Bighouse caretaker! This wonderful photograph was taken by Wren Steiner on his Rolleiflex film camera, 2023.
