GGF - Blackpool 167

GGF - Blackpool 167
Blackpool 167 having disgorged the passengers at the southern end of The Link, is about to have the trolley pole turned.
The Festival Wheel, on Norwood, is in the right background and the A-frame footbridge to Elsington & Norwood is to the left.
167 is not a tram local to Tyneside, but was a substitution by Crich, because the original choice Gateshead No.5 had a tendency to derail & stick on the points.
.
The shed behind is that tall so the double decked Sunderland 100 & Newcastle 102 will fit inside at night. A similar height shed at the northern end of The Link also contained the depot facilities.
