It is still the story in Manchester of adverts being removed and not added as we can now report on a second set of vinyls stripped in 2025.
The latest tram which is now back in the standard fleet livery of yellow and silver (not forgetting the spots!) is 3118. This tram had been advertising JD Sports in a more of less identical advert to that which South Yorkshire Supertram’s 115 had also received.
Originally applied in November 2024, 3118’s vinyls were taken off in January 2025. This had been its third advert of its career following on from Tommy Hilfiger in April and May 2024, and AliExpress in June and July 2024.
