After last week seemed to be the week of the advert removal it looks as if this week is the reverse as three new adverts have been applied to trams on Manchester Metrolink. 3061<\/strong>, 3092<\/strong> and 3101<\/strong> are now all carrying adverts (which for 3101<\/strong> is its first one ever), although its not all the case of new adverts as 3075<\/strong> has also seen its latest ad removed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The three new adverts were all noted for the first time on Monday 8th<\/sup> September 2025 and this time there is a theme for the new advertisers as they are all things you can wear! 3061<\/strong> is advertising Skechers, 3092<\/strong> carries vinyls for Primark and 3101<\/strong> is now carrying its first set of vinyls for Me+Em (women\u2019s designer fashion in case you wondering!).<\/p>\n

3061<\/strong>\u2019s advert for Skechers \u2013 which is mainly blue and includes large sections which is just plain blue with no logo, product or slogan \u2013 is actually is tenth different design (although one of those was only a partial ad for The Bruntwood Prize 20th<\/sup> Anniversary) and is not the first time its advertised some form of clothing\/footwear as it previous advertised both 4th<\/sup> Arq and asos. The tram had been in plain fleet livery briefly since The Bruntwood Prize vinyls were removed, although that didn\u2019t last for long!<\/p>\n

3092<\/strong> is only on its second advert with this wrap for Primark. The clothing and home retailer is a well known shop across the UK and its perhaps surprising to think this is its very first foray into advertising on the trams. It also features a blue background along with some of the products you can get from their stores. The task for this one is to get the tram passing Primark in Piccadilly Gardens of course!<\/p>\n

And then there is 3101<\/strong> which joins the ranks of the adverts for the first time with a mainly white avert for Me+Em.<\/p>\n

On the flip side of these new adverts 3075<\/strong> has seen its Captain Morgan wrap \u2013 first applied in July 2025 \u2013 removed. This had been its tenth advert (although three of those were revised versions for The Trafford Centre).<\/p>\n
