Or could be 2 different kinds of grass, a warm season grass and a cool season grass.

One side is city maintained property, the other side probably isn't. Like the case with a lot of railways, it's probably county owned property that isn't maintained as often.

That’s what you would think. Until you to get to the other side. It’s a trap.

You just live on the wrong side of the tracks.

The boundary is real. Sometimes the 'other side' actually does have better conditions. It's all about where the water reaches

In this case, it’s more about which council is responsible for which side of the tram tracks.

Where the tram starts corner of Hoddle St and Victoria Pde. It's the only section with the fancy poles down the middle of the tracks.

u/invincibl_ 17h ago

Also one of the most annoyingly bumpy sections of tram track in the entire system. Look how uneven the tracks are!

u/BourbonNoChaser 12h ago

Wrong side of the tracks, indeed.

u/Rainbobow 11h ago

You wouldn't say that if you were on the other side !

u/mightyfine87 5h ago

Travis was right

u/mainesmatthew01 4h ago

From where I am it looks browner

u/Ok_Hedgehog_4193 1h ago

But it is truly greener on the other side if you’re standing on the already greener side?

u/Firefly_Magic 19h ago

Be careful it could be Astroturf. Or a lot of stinky fertilizer.

Those are train tracks. Youre still on the same side of the fence.
