Thursday 1 August saw further problems for Manchester Metrolink with a car colliding with a tram on Mosley Street in the morning and then during the evening an overhead line problem on the Bury line.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The first incident saw services suspended in Manchester city centre after a car collided with a tram on Mosley Street. The incident occurred during the mid morning and involved M5000 3040<\/strong> which suffered damage to the front right edge skirting. As a result of the collision services were running from Rochdale to Victoria, MediaCityUK-Eccles and Altrincham\/East Didsbury\/Eccles-Cornbrook. Services between Bury and Droylsden ran unaffected. Trams were on the move again through the city centre shortly after 1230.<\/p>\n Then during the evening the overhead came down at Crumpsall causing the Bury line to be suspended until the end of service. 3044 <\/strong>was in the vicinity when the overhead wires came down and was left in situ until engineers could get to the scene to make repairs to the overhead. 3044<\/strong> was heading towards Bury when the incident happened and the citybound overhead lines were left energised to allow any trams which were stranded between Crumpsall and Bury to return to depot.<\/p>\n
