A new Victorian view

A new Victorian view
A rare visit to the city gives us a view from Victoria Railway station in Manchester showing us part of the new tramway concourse. Just two things of note to be seen here – one is a lone Manchester Bee, one of a few that are still dotted around the city centre and the other is the tram itself. For those that are interested it’s the Metrolink No. 3121 on its way to Manchester Airport via Market Street.
Some interesting line connectivity here! Remember we drive on the left here so this tram is heading away from the station having taken the shortest route but the return tram would do a big swing out on a longer detour. I wonder why they designed it like that ?

Nice full screen, enjoy the day.

See next photo for more bees!

Ah yes, an iconic scene already! It is here where I arrive on the tram from Oldham. Glad you found Mr. bee too.

Cheers. Herb

Difficult to say what I like better: the photo or the title. So I'll just say that both are equally good :-)

Interesting to see this. I just checked and it’s 11 years since I was in the City Centre quite a contrast from the previous 50 years man and boy.
