UKCrichS.jpg (142277 bytes)

One of the most modern trams in the UK, excluding light rail and the 'Supertram' systems. These 'Robert' bodied trams graced Sheffield for several years, and this example led the final farewell paraded when the system closed. For the special occasion the tram was specially repainted and this has been faithfully preserved.
