Therefore, a special photo charter has been arranged for Saturday 28th September, which will hopefully feature a very rare appearance by <strong>76<\/strong> on the main line.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Billed as &#8216;an evening with <strong>Leicester 76<\/strong>&#8216;, the shoot will take place outside of the normal museum opening hours, between 7:30pm and 10:00pm on the evening of September 28th. It is intended to try to re-create a 1920s period scene and pose the elusive tram in a number of different locations. Although not confirmed yet, this will hopefully include the car being posed in the Tramway Street, something not seen since it last ran in passenger service way back in the 1970s! To enable this to happen, <strong>76<\/strong> will require a workshop exam before it can be allowed out onto the main line, and the monies raised will cover the cost of this job, with any surplus simply being donated to the museum. The event has been arranged at very short notice as <strong>76<\/strong> is expected to be transferred back into the Exhibition Hall shortly, and whilst it is temporarily housed at the front of the running sheds, the opportunity to arrange a special photo shoot with it was deemed too good to pass up on!<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who is interested in attending this unique event should contact Jason Cross, who is organising the photo shoot with David Williams, by sending an email to <a href=\"mailto:Jason.cross@15c.co.uk\">Jason.cross@15c.co.uk<\/a>. Please note that the charge of attending is \u00a325 per person, and that places will be strictly limited, so anyone wishing to attend is advised to make contact as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5178\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/?attachment_id=5178\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5178\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5178\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5178\" title=\"news76\" src=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/news76-550x366.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/news76-550x366.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/news76-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/news76.jpg 1229w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5178\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Leicester 76 is seen here during Enthusiasts&#39; Day at Crich on 14th September during a rare appearance in the open.
