The first 2 weeks of August saw further Ghost running and cleaning up
of the work sites. People were seen inspecting the stations and marking
defects to be repaired. The lift at Lilyfield station was not finished by
the 13th, but most of the other work seemed to be cleaning up the works depot
site at Jubilee Park. On the day I covered the Lilyfield end of the track,
no trams were running, it appeared a detailed site inspection was being
done instead.
The system opened for public
operation on Sunday the 13th.
This brings to a close my photo series of the extension works. Any
further photo's taken along the route will appear in the operations
archive part of this site.
