Notes:
Unless stated otherwise the last operated dates are at Crich.
Those trams shown as Operational are those which were announced as being due to be commissioned for service in 2024, although does not necessarily mean the tram is currently available for use.
The current location is where the tram can normally be found. However at times trams may be moved to other locations around the Museum as required.
Clay Cross store is the museum's off site storage with no public access.
Derby 1 is now on display at Great Northern Classics, Derby having been cosmetically restored at Crich between May and August 2023. It was moved to Derby on 20th August 2023.
Leamington & Warwick 1 is displayed in the Exhibition Hall in "as found" condition.
London County Council 1 moved into the Workshop on Saturday 14th June 2014 and is now undergoing a major restoration.
Sheffield 15 is the operational horse tram although with no horse tram running days planned is now shown above as on display.
Birmingham Central Tramways 75 was transferred from the Black Country Living Museum to storage at Clay Cross in late 2017.
Bournemouth 85 is displayed on a short piece of 3'6" track in the Great Exhibition Hall.
Newcastle 102's overhaul started on 30th June 2018 when it was moved to the Workshop. The overhaul is supported by the Tramcar Sponsorship Organisation. Its hoped the tram will enter service during 2024.
The only remaining section of Nottingham 121 is one end making it highly unlikely it will be used for the basis of restoration with both other Nottingham tram bodies in a better condition.
Kingston upon Hull 132 is on long term loan at the Streetlife Museum in Hull as a static exhibit.
Both North Metropolitan Tramways 184 and the unknown North Metropolitan Tramways tram body have been dismantled with the parts "flat-packed" for the potential restoration as one horse car in the future.
Blackpool 298 returned to Crich on 11th June 2021 having spent nearly seven years in store at Clay Cross. It will the next restoration project thanks to funding from the TSO. A new underframe, constructed by the Ffestiniog Railway, was delivered to Crich on 9th July 2021.
Blackpool 645 has been acquired for possible use as a second Access Tram. It arrived at Crich from Blackpool on 19th July 2023.
Berlin 223 006-4 is the Access Tram for disabled visitors. It is currently withdrawn requiring overhaul and will be unavailable for service in 2024.
