I’m only here to tweet at Yarra Trams. Opinions are very much my own. She/her 🏳️‍🌈

@yarratrams many thanks to the driver of tram 2043 (shuttle to the Showgrounds) for clear communication.
Heading out of the city, they announced possible delays due to a protest, and clearly announced the tram would not turn left after the Market. So helpful, much appreciated!

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams Looks like no changes to 58 trams today, is that right?

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

Pretty please @yarratrams it reeks on here! It would be great to open the windows.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams any chance of opening the windows on tram 6078? There’s a smell like cigarette smoke at the back.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

Aha, the passenger with the crack pipe has now departed after being told by another passenger he couldn’t smoke it inside. He put it out, and has now left, but it would be great to open the windows and air the tram out.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

Oh, and the driver had green hair! She looked so great!
It’s really nice when people are nice.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams thank you to the one of your drivers on route 58 (might have been tram 2008?), who was so friendly!
She pointed out the NFL wrapped tram as it went past, told us how to find it on TramTracker, she advised people going to the Zoo to change at Flagstaff… so helpful!

@yarratrams fyi, one of the priority seats on tram 6001 needs repairs to the seat, please.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams FYI a guy just boarded tram 2074, route 19 outwards bound, who had been sitting at the tram stop screeching ‘fuck yous, fucks yous all’.
Just wanted to let you know so that maybe you could pass that onto the driver to potentially keep an eye (or an ear) out?

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams You’re the best! I’m so sorry for making this your problem, but I just couldn’t leave that without trying to tell someone.
Thank you, I really appreciate your help.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams sorry to do this, but the north-bound platform at Stop 7: Queen Victoria Market has blood all over it.
‘Snap, Send, Solve’ says bodily fluids are City of Melbourne, but diverts to a phone call, which of course no one is answering at this time of night.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

I’ve got a photo, which I don’t want to post here, and I’ll call City of Melbourne in the morning, but I wanted to let you know, in case there was anything you could do.
Thank you!

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

I’ve sent the report through that service, but it’s definitely blood, not rubbish. There’s a bloody sock and bloody debris at the north end, where most trams board, and a trail of blood at the south end of the platform.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

Guy just got off the tram, at Church Street, but that was about 30 stops with him scrolling with his volume up, and giving me attitude when I asked him not to.
So disappointing! So unnecessary!

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams could you please make an announcement on tram 2035 about not playing music out loud?
Guy sitting opposite me who is scrolling with his sound up and refused my request for him to use headphone.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams And he just got off the tram at Church Street.

[Jessica Broadbent @JessTheReader]

@yarratrams Thanks! Pretty frustrating situation, I can understand the initial mistake, but it’s annoying not to just fix it when asked, and instead argue back with ‘it’s not even that loud’ and ‘no one else cares’.
