How can I vote, I hear you ask? Well, its very simple just head to the Tram of the Year page where not only can you submit your vote but you can also read why each nominee has made the final shortlist. Just remember the contest is just for fun and it is only one vote per person with multiple votes being discarded before the winners are announced (in multiple votes the first selections will count only).
You can vote from now until Saturday 11th January 2020 – use your vote wisely!
* An appeal as well. We usually like to feature the nominees of the Tram (Traditional) of the Year on our front page but currently don’t have photos of either Cambridge 7 or Manx Electric Railway 54 to do so – if anyone can help with a new photo of either please let us know through the usual channels.
