We have already featured <strong>Blackpool Balloon 711<\/strong> but another tram to visit was <strong>Newcastle 114<\/strong> from Beamish.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->As an electric uncanopied open top car mounted on a four wheel truck the loan of <strong>Newcastle 114<\/strong> enabled Crich to fill a gap in their collection as they didn\u2019t have any working example of this type. In being loaned to Crich <strong>114<\/strong> duly become the first ever (and to date still only) tram to visit from another heritage tramway (all other visitors have come from Blackpool). The loan was only on a short term basis with <strong>114<\/strong> arriving in Derbyshire on Friday 8th September 2014 and carried passengers on Friday 12th, Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th September 2014 during the Electric 50 celebrations and then on two further occasions on Monday 15th and Tuesday 16th September. The chance was also taken to display it alongside fellow Newcastle tram, <strong>102<\/strong>. It then left Crich on Friday 19th September 2014. It was only short and sweet but it was a successful loan spell but despite this there hasn\u2019t been another loan tram at Crich since.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21392\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/?attachment_id=21392\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-21392\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21392\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-21392\" title=\"1.114-gp\" src=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/1.114-gp-550x366.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/1.114-gp-550x366.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/1.114-gp-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/1.114-gp.jpg 1296w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-21392\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Newcastle 114 sits at Town End terminus on 14th September.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_21393\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/?attachment_id=21393\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-21393\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21393\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-21393\" title=\"2.114-gp\" src=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/2.114-gp-550x366.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/2.114-gp-550x366.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/2.114-gp-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-21393\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">In this view we see 114 at Stephenson Place.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_21395\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/?attachment_id=21395\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-21395\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21395\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-21395\" title=\"3.102+114-gp\" src=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/3.102+114-gp-550x366.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/3.102+114-gp-550x366.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/3.102+114-gp-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/3.102+114-gp.jpg 1296w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-21395\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">As mentioned in the text the chance was also taken to display 114 along with Crich resident and fellow Newcastle 102; the first time in many years two Newcastle trams were seen side by side.
