Delays for Metrolink after tram failure

There were delays for Manchester Metrolink during the afternoon rush hour on Friday 26th July after a tram failed at Deansgate-Castlefield. The problem was down to an issue with the “pantograph connecting to the overhead line” which meant no trams were able to run through Deansgate-Castlefield whilst this was fixed. All trams from Eccles, East Didsbury, Manchester Airport and Altrincham were terminated at Cornbrook during the disruption. The tram was stationary for approximately 30 minutes after 1800 but delays continued whilst the service was reformed.
