 A poignant photo of 162 at the old Domain Interchange in March 2013. The barriers around show that work was about to start to demolish the old green and cream structures and replace thm with soul-less glass and metal ones. The track veering off up Domain Road for route 8 to Toorak was realigned so that trams served the shelter on a new track slightly to the east so route 8 trams no longer held up St Kilda Road cars. The new Domain intechange was short lived as the following year the track up Domain Road was abandoned and new track was laid so route 8 trams took the next left up Toorak Road. This was in preparation for the Metro Tunnel works. The St Kilda Road stop at the Toorak Road junction was then modified to match the revised Domain Interchange layout with a separate track for route 8 trams to Toorak. The new Domain Interchange glass and metal structure has now been demolished completely with the site destined to be a new interchange station with the Metro Tunnel trains. They certainly know how to waste money in Victoria, must be the only government to spend millions of dollars not to beuild a highway! |

 The Shrine of Remembrance can be seen behind Z3 177 as it heads into the city on route 8 in December 2012. It is approaching the next stop after the Domain Interchange. |

 Tram 177 was seen earlier that month in Toorak. It is not on the 272, it is on the 72 and the preceding 2 is part of the scrolling desto. Toorak Road was the preserve of route 8 and clearly an incident had resulted in the 72 route being temporarily diverted. |

 November 2014 and Z3 183 is seen at St Kilda Junction with Z1 cars 95 and 88. Car 88 is behind 183.
