Is it true that only the Melbourne versions have that stupid clicking thing that drivers click to keep the track brakes off?203.214.75.127 January 2006 (UTC) If you mean a big red push-button, I'm sorry to tell you that no. In fact, this is a safety device (Dead Man Device) installed to ensure the driver is aware. To do so, this device blocks traction and applies brakes if the driver does not send a signal (push the button)within a given interval (few seconds) In other types of rail transport you might find a similar device installed as a pedal with the same function. It's annoying for all, but prevents the train/tram to run driverless. Dretsend

[edit] Proposed Citadis Projects

[edit] Subiaco, Western Australia

There is a proposal to re-introduce trams on Rokeby Road (Trams ran from 1900 to 1958) and Citadis is a contender, due to their presence in Melbourne.
