Albert the Clydesdale Passes Away | Adelaide News

A beloved Clydesdale named Albert, who pulled the iconic Victor Harbor horse-drawn tram for 13 years, has passed away at 18 from tumors. Known for his calm demeanor, towering size, and quirky personality—he hated blinkers and eyed fishermen with suspicion—the gentle giant was also a mentor to new drivers. His best friend Murray is now getting extra care with a new companion. Though the tramway community grieves, operations continue amid recent hardships including a flu outbreak and financial setbacks. Albert’s legacy lives on as they honor his spirit and keep moving forward.
