Manchester Metrolink T-68 1005 - London Road, Manchester.
With some old Manchester architecture as a backdrop, Metrolink T-68 1005 was running along London Road and about to cross the A6 to enter the undercroft terminus below Piccadilly station with a service from Bury on May 1st 2011.
1005 had been delivered to Queens Road Depot at Collyhurst on December 4th 1991 and entered service on the first day of the Metrolink between Victoria and Bury on April 6th 1992. It was withdrawn from service in June 2012 and was scrapped in 2014.
I always think a business opportunity was missed when the T-68 fleet was withdrawn, that one did not become a static 'diner' in the city centre (US style).
