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.

Probably the tram of the day was London Transport 1622. Here it is seen at Town End waiting its next journey.
London Transport 1622 was only able to operate as far as Wakebridge because of its bogies and the track, and it is at this location that the tram is seen here.
And a final view of 1622, again at Wakebridge. It is believed to be the first passenger runs of the tram in at least 2 years.
