Brisbane Four Motor Tramcar 498

Brisbane Four Motor Tramcar 498

A total of 155 Four Motor type tramcars were built by the Brisbane City Council between 1938 and 1964. Trams were built in batches.
Each batch would introduce subtle changes to the style of the car i.e. some vehicles were fitted with resilient wheels yet still retained journal bearings.
This model represents numbers between 493 and 502 which where built in 1948 and 1949.
Cars were equipped with 4x40 hp AGE247 motors mounted in trucks built by the B.C.C. based on the Melbourne No.15 truck.
Trolley pole bases were MMTB type. 497 was the first car in Australia to enter service with resilient wheels in June 1949.
Internal Conductor mirrors mounted on the end bulkheads were introduced in this series.
Here, this tram is presented in the way some of the series would have appeared when built. Notice the chrome bumpers. Yet they only possessed journal bearings.
