The next M5000 arrival due in Manchester will be 3090 and as this photo shows it is on its way! It is seen here waiting at Rotterdam port on a low loader ahead of a sailing overnight with arrival due in Manchester on 25th October. (Photo: Christoph Heuer)
From the recent photo of M5000 Tram 3090 destined for Manchester was published it raised a question. Are these trams supplied on their own or on an accommodation wheel set? It isn’t that clear from the photo.
what work is required at Queens Road Depot to commission a tram from as delivered to self propelled and ready to begin mileage accumulation / testing?
