Crich Tramway Village & Tramathon June 2008
The annual Tramathon at the Crich Tramway Village - home of the National Tramway Museum - took place on Sunday 8th June 2008. The idea is that all operational passenger trams see operation during the day and that more or less happened at this years event - although if you wanted to see rare trams on the depot fan or works cars go onto the main line you would be sadly disappointed. This gallery has 60 photos featuring trams involved in the days activities and also various sights of trams no longer operational and either in the depot, workshop or Exhibition Hall. As usual you can access the different pages of the gallery through links at both the top and bottom of the page.

Another non-runner despite a significant amount of work in recent years is Glasgow 1297. The tram remains stored at the back of the depot.
A group of trams in the Depot with Leeds 602, London County Council 106, Sheffield Works 330 and Edinburgh 35 - all being non-runners.
