In this latest update we see that its been a fairly consistent picture in most locations although the Isle of Man is the outlier with quite a few changes to report there. As always the aim of this article is to feature all tramways in the British Isles and to show which trams have run in passenger service so far this year. To qualify it has to have run with passengers on board so private hires count but not testing.
