Over the past few weeks we have gradually seen the OLA adverts whittled away on the West Midlands Metro with it now reaching the point where they have been removed. The last tram which used to carry the adverts that we haven’t previously featured on these pages in 27 which we now remedy!
27 had the OLA adverts applied in September 2019 and until February 2020 it was one of four of the Urbos3 trams to be carrying the same adverts. The others were 24 (applied September 2019, removed February 2020), 25 (September 2019-August 2021) and 32 (September 2019 to October 2020).
The advertless 27 is seen having just departed from Bull Street with a service to Wolverhampton St George’s. (Photograph by Mark Cufflin, 21st August 2021)
