The Completely Random A-Z of Trams in the British Isles! P is for Parallel Run

p-gp

The photo here shows the two remaining original motors on the Manx Electric Railway involved in a parallel run during the MER 130 events in September 2023. 2 gets to run on the correct track whilst 1 is on the usual southbound track. They are both climbing up to Port Jack having just passed the entrance to Derby Castle Sheds. To add to the parallel run a cyclist also joins in racing the trams up the hill (the trams won in the end!). (Photograph by Gareth Prior, 10th September 2023)
