About

Our mission is to ensure the preservation of Victoria's urban tramway heritage for the enjoyment and education of current and future generations.

Story

Our mission is to ensure the preservation of Victoria's urban tramway heritage for the enjoyment and education of current and future generations.

In order to present the most authentic historical picture possible, this includes the operation of an electric tramway working according to historic principles, adjusted where required to comply with current legislative requirements.

We wish to ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for our visitors and our staff, as we have a duty of care to both whilst they are visiting or working at our museum.

Since the establishment of the Tramway Heritage Centre at Bylands, we have built up a significant amount of infrastructure:

one kilometre of electric tramline on the former Heathcote Junction to Bendigo railway line
tramway electric supply substation
two tram depot buildings
vehicle storage building for unrestored trams
cable tramcar storage building
motor vehicle storage building
Visitor Centre
Exhibition Goods Shed display building and workshop
