at Carlton Colville. Opening for the first time on Sunday 2nd<\/sup> April it followed this with five days of consecutive opening between Thursday 6th<\/sup> and Monday 10th<\/sup> April to coincide with the long Easter weekend. In this pictorial article we take a look at what was happening on Easter Sunday, 9th<\/sup> April, with photos coming from the camera of Bryan Grint.<\/p>\n

As is normal trams, trolleybuses and the East Suffolk Light Railway are all operating on opening days for the museum. There are scheduled to be two trams in service on each day and this year the museum will be announcing their planned output at the start of each month to allow visitors to plan when they may want to visit to see a certain vehicle (provided with all the usual caveats of course!). Unfortunately, the operating season for the trams has started with a truncated route as poor weather has meant track maintenance in the woods has overrun which means trams are only able to run part of the route. To make up for this though an additional free bus tour is running around Lowestoft departing at 1230, 1330, 1430 and 1530.<\/p>\n

So far in 2023, there have been three different trams used in service. These have been Blackpool trams Marton VAMBAC 11<\/strong> and Standard 159<\/strong> as well as Amsterdam 474<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
