This is for Marks Electrical (who also advertise on Manchester Metrolink) and was applied in January 2024. Its not been the only wrap the tram has carried since we saw it in fleet livery in 2009 though with five other adverts carried in that period, indeed from 2010 until 2019 it was barely out of them. The tram speeds towards Ruddington Lane on 16th September 2024.
