Manchester Metrolink Trams Part 2 - Piccadilly

[@Madonsteamrailways]

Trams are such a great idea that I don’t understand why London gave up having them.

Between you, me and the gatepost, I think that the original type of trams should come back, but in a more modern form. What London needs is something like that in Manchester!!

Unfortunately the powers that be decided to invest in a rather expensive fleet of Hybrid buses specific to London, instead of investing in a light rail system for central London. Who knows, the future may change that and light rail trams may appear on the streets of central London.

@@StevenHughestransportvideos They were there in the 1930s, 40s and early 50s. They were stupidly withdrawn because too many people bought cars.

Actually, we have the London Tramlink from the City of London to Croydon. So we still haven’t got proper trams anymore!!
