Notes: 1005, 1010 and 1015 have been fitted with front valances and retractable couplers for running to Eccles 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. 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). 1011 features the Metrolink roundels on the front and rear dash panels. 1007 has non standard seating for the first series trams with higher backs and more rounded grab handles. It has also had electronic PIDs and CCTV fitted internally. 1010 is fitted with external orange LED Matrix destination displays. It also has internal matrix displays giving details of the next stop. 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, causing the fleet number to be split. All trams (with the exception of 1007) have undergone £2 million mid-life refurbishment program. The names carried by 1001 & 1009 are really no more than a form of advertising. |
