Coming quickly after a very similar advert was added to West Midlands Metro 44, Manchester Metrolink 3116 is now running in new vinyls for the National Trust. In doing so it becomes the fourteenth tram on the network to be carrying advertising vinyls of some type.
The new advert was first seen on the tram on 26th March 2024 with the tram working on the Bury line. As with 44, 3116 includes the slogan Catch Me While You Can and is promoting the Blossom Watch campaign.
This becomes the third vinyl wrap advert on 3116. Previous designs have been for Cheshire Oaks Outlet (May-September 2019) and Sale Sharks (August-November 2022).
