Nice work Matt. The sounds of the motors and the compressor on the Taits brings back memories of my youth.

Oh, they got it working again! Wonderful! It always amazes me that it’s a engine, it looks just like a set of coaches

Thanks for recording this bit of Melbourne history so well for everyone. This livery was called the Rose Red and Moonstone Grey scheme. In use for new painting around 1936 to 1956. Longer lasting since it used new improved automotive paint., It replaced an earlier chocolate coloured scheme, but this faded too much. Early days these chocolate coloured cars were lined with yellow pin striping. So a bit of history unfamiliar to many less interested in history.
