Notes: Trams actually on site at Crich now fall into three categories: Operational, On Static Display and Under Attention. As a result if a tram is withdrawn from service awaiting workshop space it will now be shown as "On Display". Leamington & Warwick 1 is displayed in the Exhibition Hall in "as found" condition. Sheffield 15 is the operational horse tram. It is normally displayed in the Exhibition Hall but is used in service on rare occasions. Cardiff 21 is a double deck horse tram on loan to Crich from Collections Centre, Nantgarw, Wales. Dundee 21 is a steam tram trailer. Sheffield 74 is in fact made from 3 different trams - the upper and lower decks are two different Sheffield trams, and the trucks are from Leeds. MBRO 84 is a Manchester, Bury, Rochdale and Oldham Steam Tramway, steam engine. It is a Wilkinson Patent Vertical Boiler Steam tram built by Beyer Peacock in 1886, running until 1905 when it went to a foundry in Wigan until 1954. It has been given to the NTM from the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry. London United Tramways 159 was officially launched into service on 7th July 2012 following a seven year restoration funding by the London County Council Tramways Trust. After an incident on launch day the tram was taken out of service for investigations to take place and it will not carry passengers until these have been concluded. Blackpool 166 was relaunched into service on 29th May 2011 following an overhaul over the winter. Nottingham 166 arrived at Clay Cross in 2007. Blackpool 167 returned to service on 16th September 2012 following attention in the Workshops. Blackpool 236 arrived at Crich on 23rd April 2012 following an overhaul in Blackpool Transport's workshops. The tram entered service on 3rd June 2012. Blackpool 249 arrived at Crich on 27th March 2010. Oporto 273 has been withdrawn from service as it is overdue its seven year lift. Leeds 345 is receiving an overhaul in the Workshops which should see it returned to the operational fleet. Most of this work has now been completed and the tram is undergoing testing. Sheffield 510 was withdrawn from service over fears for the body condition. It has now entered the Workshops where it is to undergo attention to return it to the operational fleet. Blackpool 630 arrived at Crich on 21st December 2011 and entered service at a special event on 12th May 2012. Blackpool 762 arrived at Crich on 9th November 2011 following disposal from its home tramway. It is planned that the tram will eventually enter the operational fleet at Crich but a number of jobs and paperwork has to be completed before this can happen. Glasgow 1068 (Paisley 68) was repainted into Glasgow colours from its normal Paisley livery so it could play a starring role in the Glasgow 50 celebrations at Crich in September 2012. The tram spent almost three weeks on loan at Beamish in April 2013 and returned to Crich on 23rd April. It is currently in the Workshop where lifeguards etc. will be refitted before an expected return to service. Berlin 223 006-4 is the Access Tram for disabled visitors. Following Workshop attention over Winter 2011/2 the tram has received a repaint in a new livery and has now rejoined the operational fleet. |

Notes: Croydon Tramlink 058 & 061 arrived at the Museum in early 2010 after becoming surplus to requirements in London. Oporto C65 arrived at the Clay Cross store on 15 March 2005 from the Oporto Tramway Museum reserve collection. Cardiff 131 was restored to an operational condition in time for the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Museum at Crich in 2009 as it was the first tram to arrive on site back in 1959. Since restoration it has visited Beamish Museum in April 2010 and was loaned to Blackpool between November 2011 and March 2012 to scrub the rails between Starr Gate and Pleasure Beach although was only used on a couple of occasions and spent most of its time tucked up inside Starr Gate Depot. Sheffield 330 was commissioned for use at the start of 2012 as Cardiff 131 was away in Blackpool. Modern Tower Wagon 4 has been rebuilt in early 2011 on the underframe of TW3 so as to meet the latest modern safety standards. Rupert has been moved into the Exhibition Hall for storage. |
