Notes:
All trams are now fitted with electronic destination blinds on ends and sides. A number of vehicles now feature revised destination displays with a smaller final destination at the top with stops it goes via scrolling underneath.
The entire fleet - in the following order 115, 119, 104, 101, 107, 105, 121, 122, 120, 114, 110, 125, 118, 103, 117, 108, 106, 123, 113, 102, 109, 124, 112, 111 and 116 - have undergone their mid-life refreshes which as well as internal changes has seen the application of a new fleet livery.
Following an accident involving a Mainline bus on 26th May 1995 the current formation of 102 is actually partly formed with part of 111: 102-1-original centre-111-1. It returned to service in this form on 14th July 1995 and remains like this to do this day.
106 was at one stage stripped for spares and rebuilt.
111 split a switch in the Depot and damaged an articulation unit in July 1995 which led to the formation change as mentioned above for 102. As a result 111 is now formed as 111-2-original centre-102-2. 111 also split the switch at Alsing Road on 23rd November 1996.
120's livery is a commemoration of 50 years since the closure of the original tramway in Sheffield. It also features posters internally.


British Trams Online is an enthusiast run website for enthusiasts. It should be able to be viewed at all screen resolutions but I do advise you that it is probably best at 1024x768. The site is owned, maintained (and in the main written) by Gareth Prior. Any comments or suggestions please email.
