Summary[edit]

Description

At the National Tramway Museum in Crich.

The Museum started in the 1950s / 60s when most of the old tram networks in the cities of the UK were being closed down.

The Tramway Museum Society was formed in the late 1940s when the decline began and they started to purchase the trams, track etc.

The Crich site came to the attention of the society in the late 1950s. They later purchased the site.

A look around the Tram Depots.

Oporto 273 from 1927.

This tram represents the type of design used in countries with hot climates. The side windows can be slid into the roof, making the tram open sided and allowing the passengers greater comfort. The restoration of this tram was completed in 2002 with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, and has received an award from the Heritage Railway Association. Returned to service in 2014 following repairs.
