Gallery 468: Farewell to the Manchester Metrolink T68As

On Wednesday 30th April 2014 the very last fare paying passenger runs of the Manchester Metrolink took place when 2001 and 2003 ran on the Bury-Abraham Moss shuttle service. Now over two months later we finally (sorry for the delay!) take the chance to say goodbye to the small sub-class of T68As with a pictorial look at the LRVs during their short career on Manchester Metrolink. All six of the LRVs feature in this collection (some more than others with 2001 and 2003 especially prominent for obvious reasons) with views showing them from some of their first runs until that very last day when just 15 years after entering service they were told they were no longer carry passengers in Manchester again.

Photographs in this collection were taken by Bob Hodges, Steve Hyde, Steve Kemp, Clifford Stead & Georg Vehres
