And off to Manchester and the Heaton Park Tramway for this next instalment of “The Number 20”.
Trams: Stockport 5 & Hull 96
Built: Both in 1901
Qualification for series: 5 + 9 + 6 = 20
We include two trams at the Heaton Park Tramway for that museum to join in this series as we take a look at two of the operational trams – Stockport 5 and Hull 96. Both trams coincidentally originally entered service in 1901 but if you add all their separate numbers together you can get to 20 (just as 96 was renumbered from when it was Leeds 6!). The photo was taken on 2nd July 2022 during the Tramtastic event and shows 5 just departing from New Lakeside and in doing so passes Hull 96. (Photograph by Gareth Prior)
