Sydney, Elizabeth St c1906. The Sydney Tramway Museum's preserved Sydney LP Class seems to have been a little bit of a 'show pony'. Considering the number of trams that operated in Sydney, the chances of capturing one specific tram on film would have been quite rare. Yet there are at least two or three images of 154 in service in its original condition as a Sydney F Class and a number of photographs of her in her final LP form, especially on the isolated Rockdale to Brighton-le-Sands tramway. Unfortunately, we have yet to find an image of her in her second form as a Sydney L Class even though it was in service longer as an L Class than as an F Class. The tram entered service in May 1900 and spent almost 10 years in service as an F Class. It re-entered service as an L Class in early April 1910 and saw a further (almost) 16 years of service before being rebuilt to an LP Class. It re-entered service in March 1926 and was sent to Rockdale in August 1935, where it remained until September 1949. It was officially withdrawn from service in October 1950 and has been in the Tramway Museum's collection ever since.
