Feltham Met 331 aka Sunderland 100 at Town End, Crich aka National Tramway Museum. Driving this straight out of the works in 1989 was interesting - it has air brakes and being new, almost no travel between OFF and ON ...

Sunderland 100 in a British Steel livery, applied as part of the sponsorship deal that was involved in funding the restoration. Dunston Rocket in the background, so looking North along The Link. 100 aka Metropolitan 331 is a "Feltham" with the driver in a separate cab. Very nice in wet weather, but more like a hot greenhouse on sunny days. . Note that 100 has two poles, instead of the bow collector it should have.

Newcastle 102 is heading southwards along "The Link" between Riverside / Dunston and Eslington Norwood. The "Link" was a relatively long and narrow strip joining the two main sections. The tower block in the background was known as the "Dunston Rocket"

Part of the MER's 125th celebration, September 2018. Posed at Laxey ... Horse Tram No1 (1913, Milnes-Voss) [This is the second car to carry "No1" , built as a replacement in 1913 with a 30 seat fully enclosed saloon body. The "original" No1 was built as a single decker by Starbuck Car & Wagon Co in 1876, later converted to a double-decker but ultimately scrapped in 1901] The one horsepower motive unit is "Douglas" and judging by the pattern of his coat, he's a Clydesdale. He's been a "trammer" since 2002 [foaled in 1998 and he's 16 hands at the withers and definitely a Clydesdale - I checked the tramway website] MER No.1 (built 1893 by Milnes of Birkenhead) Snaefell Mountain Railway No.1 [gauge is larger at 3ft 6"] the original car was built in 1895 by Milnes, it was rebuilt in 2011 and reverted to the Tramway and prussian blue / cream livery it carried when new. Note; it has bow collectors and Fell brakes.

Pair of Middleton Trams.
