Its time for another update of which heritage trams have run in passenger service across the British Isles during 2023. Since our last update there have been more trams running for the first time as we enter a period of better weather which has meant more open trams have seen use. The aim is to feature all tramways within the British Isles and to give an indication of what has run on each of them \u2013 to qualify it has to have run with passengers on board, so private hires do count but not any tram which has just been used for testing. As always any errors or omissions please let us know by using the contact details at the bottom of the article.<\/p>\n

Information is believed correct up to and including Monday 5th<\/sup> June 2023. This list is intended to show those trams which have run in some form of passenger service during 2023 (and thus does not include those on test\/driver training) and is as accurate as possible, although errors may have occurred. Various online sources have been used to collate this information. Amended 8\/6\/23 with more details from Wirral Heritage Tramway.
