indeed! melbun proves that a good tram system really works and is incredibly popular with commuters. fascinating to see how central melbourne roads have changed over the years, esp. in the city centre, to prioritise trams and pedestrians. not to mention that it is now free to use the trams in and near to the city centre.
so, yes! bring the bloody things back! build it and they will come*!
* drivers will bemoan it, but that is only one of the benefits of bringing back trams!
