Withdrawn from service in 1949, <strong>102<\/strong> became a bit of a nomad and was stored at several locations before it found itself at the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu, Hampshire for approximately 10 years (where for a time it was joined by the more local <strong>Southampton 45<\/strong>). Moving back home to Newcastle the tram was given a full restoration and finally arrived at Crich in 1975 where it ran sporadically before it received further workshop attention ahead of a move to the Gateshead Garden Festival. But that\u2019s another story.<\/p>\n<p>This image shows <strong>102<\/strong> in action at Crich on 30th April 1989.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11779\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/?attachment_id=11779\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11779\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11779\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11779\" title=\"102-bh\" src=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/102-bh-550x366.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/102-bh-550x366.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/102-bh-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/102-bh.jpg 1255w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11779\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photograph by Bob Hodges<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re off to Crich again for our latest installment in \u201cPicture in Time\u201d and this time we take a look at Newcastle 102 \u2013 another tram currently out of service.
