They have been in service for many years and are likely to continue to be for many years, both because of their rugged sturdiness and a need to relieve the pressure caused by the underperforming overseas private contractor models.
Or the W class trams still in operation after more than 50 years built by the Melbourne and Metropolitan Tramways Board. They are also a sought after item by overseas tourist tramways.
