Notes:
Douglas Bay Horse Tramway 11 and Douglas Bay Horse Tramway 47 initially arrived at the Wirral Transport Museum on 5th and 4th May 2021 respectively from the Isle of Man. In October 2023 they were moved to Hooton Park, Ellesmere Park for further storage.
Warrington 28 is undergoing restoration at Taylor Street Depot, where it arrived on 24th July 2004. This is in fact Warrington 2 but a decision made by the MTPS membership in 2015 was that as it is to be restored to open balcony condition it should be given a new identity.
Lisbon 730 moved to Beamish on 22nd January 2024 after ownership was transferred. The tram was deemed not required by new operators of the Wirral Heritage Tramway, Big Heritage. It has now been removed from the above list.
GKD317 is a Guy Tower Wagon which was originally used for maintenance of the tramway overhead in Liverpool before being used for lighting work.
