Gareth - 30th November 2021
This week's cover photos heads to South Yorkshire where we are at the Cathedral stop on the Stagecoach Supertram network on 10th September 2021. One of only three stops on the network which is served by all the standard routes this view shows 399 203 and 125 as they run on the Tram-Train and Yellow routes.
Photos this week come from Sheffield as we again feature the Stagecoach Supertram system. These photos were taken back on 10th September - when it was a lot warmer than it is now! - and show the trams at various locations on the network with the Siemens-Duewag and Citylink trams both featured.
This week updates have been made to the Blackpool Tramway (photo links), Edinburgh Trams (new advert and photo links), Manchester Metrolink (tram into service), Nottingham Express Transit (new advert), Stagecoach Supertram (photo links) and West Midlands Metro (photo links). We also have an update to the Edinburgh Trams (new advert and photo links) and Nottingham Express Transit (new advert) Advert Lists.
Over the past seven days we have seen new adverts applied in Edinburgh (not much of a surprise there!) and Nottingham (much more of a surprise there!) whilst on the West Midlands Metro with passenger services still not running we have at least seen some trams on test - both the original Urbos3s as well as the newer additions which have yet to enter service. There are also revised services on the way for Stagecoach Supertram and the Blackpool Tramway and staying in Blackpool there has been work on the extension along Talbot Road over the past week. And in Manchestr 3133 has rapidly entered service following its delivery.
Don't forget that there is still time to get your nominations in for the British Trams Online Tram of the Year 2021 contest. You can nominate any number of items in four categories: Tram (Traditional), Tram (Modern), Tramway and Event of the Year. To find out more about the contest visit the Tram of the Year page. Nominations remain open until Saturday 4th December.
Its December tomorrow and you know what that means - lots of additional features on British Trams Online! Returning for this year are our Advent Calendars and once again we have two for you to choose from - Traditional Trams and Modern Trams. We'll be adding the photos the night before so no peeking before the day!
