In Pictures: East Anglia Transport Museum

Of all the operating museum tramways in the UK one of the least covered on these pages is probably the East Anglia Transport Museum at Carlton Colville. After the excitement of 2016 when London County Council 106 became the first short-term loan tram to run at the museum, 2017 has been a far calmer year for the tramway although it has continued to operate on a regular basis with popular trams Blackpool 159 and London Transport 1858 often in service. For this pictorial we actually go back in time until 2015 for some views of the two aforementioned trams along with a trolleybus. Bryan Grint is the photographer.

Blackpool 159 comes out of the woods and back to the museum street.

As 159 waits at the main entrance tramstop London Transport 1858 sets off on a journey of its own.

Another view of 1858 as it heads off on a journey to the woods.

159 is joined by the unique Bournemouth trolleybus 202.

1858 arrives back at the entrance and joins 159. In the background Sheffield 513 and Blackpool 11 can be viewed at the front of the depot. (All Photographs by Bryan Grint)
