Interior, view toward front

#328 originally had clerestory roof (similar to #323), but it was removed when the other trams with clerestory roofs were withdrawn. If you look closely you can still similarities between #328 and #323 in the interior and that #328 is just missing the roof. Compare to this photo of #323).
