Notes: 1005, 1010 and 1015 have been fitted with front valances and retractable couplers for running to Eccles. 1001, 1003, 1002, 1004, 1007, 1009, 1011, 1013, 1021 & 1022 are also able to run to Eccles with new smaller and rounder coupler guards. 1001, 1002, 1003, 1004, 1005, 1006, 1007, 1008, 1010, 1011, 1012, 1013, 1015, 1017, 1018, 1019, 1020, 1021, 1022, 1023, 1024, 1025 & 1026 are fitted with external orange LED Matrix destination displays. They also have internal matrix displays giving details of the next stop. 1004, 1007 & 1021 carry CCTV displays instead of external mirrors. All the series 1 trams, with the exception of 1002, 1011, 1012 and 1014, carry their number and end code on each end dash panel (e.g. 1007A and 1007B). All trams are now receiving new larger dash panel numbers. 1011 features the Metrolink roundels on the front and rear dash panels. 1006 features its fleet numbers in the original position. The decision to move the fleet numbers to the body sides was taken to allow space for the "names" carried on many of the trams which generated revenue for Metrolink as they were normally part of an advertising campaign. 1007 has non standard seating for the first series trams with higher backs and more rounded grab handles. The tram was named East Lancashire Railway at a ceremony held at Bury Interchang by Pete Waterman on 31st May 2009. 1013 has only had its The Grenadier Guardsman name stickers reapplied on one side. 1015 features a special livery which has a gloss finish. 1020 was rededicated Lancashire Fusilier in October 2006 and features embossed metal nameplates and a 3D regiment crest in the centre of both dash panels. The tram does not feature the "A" and "B" dash number but rather has plain 1020. All trams (with the exception of 1007) underwent attention under a £2 million mid-life refurbishment program. The names carried by 1002, 1009 & 1011 are really no more than a form of advertising. |

Notes: 3001 was the first of the M5000s to arrive at the Queens Road Depot on 13th July 2009. 3001-3021 have now arrived in Manchester although LRVs from 3013 onwards do not possess the signaling equipment currently used on the Metrolink network and as such are not able to be used in service. 3001 & 3007 are currently out of service. |
