Notes: All trams have been fitted with new electronic destination blinds. 2535 was named Stephen Parascandolo 1980-2007 at a special ceremony at Beckenham Junction on Saturday 21st October 2007. It is named after the webmaster of the Unofficial Croydon Tramlink website who tragically died at the age 26 following a road accident. 2552 was the first of the trams to receive the new London Tramlink livery and was officially unveiled on 6th October 2008. The remaining trams were dealt with over the following six months with the last tram being 2545 which was dealt with at the start of April 2009 (2534 lasted in the Red and White livery until October 2009 due to collision repairs). |
