Upon arrival – shortly after midday – the tram was unloaded and moved into the workshops where initial commissioning will take place ahead of mileage accumulation and then eventual entry into service.

    Has anyone noticed that when 3111 goes into service it will be unique (for a short while). It will be the only Metrolink tram (including the T68s) not to have a ‘0’ in the fleet number.
