[QUOTE=steam for ever;34082]Don't eat or try to eat a yogurt on board.
It is not a good idea. I am very sorry, but i can`t see why anybody would eat yoghurt on a tram? Must be an unhealthy eater i suppose. Richard

It is just to test stability.
I have ruined a lot of my best suits this way!

I have noticed after a bit of spotting at Altrincham most of the trams now have LED destination boards.
I must say it is much better under stagecoach. Serco look pretty neglegent now.

Serco had no reason to put investment in really, they knew they'd lost it and tried to do as little as possible before handing it over.
Stagecoach are investing but some of their tactics are apparently controversial, some claim they're trying to steer people onto their buses. Don't see it myself but anyway. First of the new trams entered public service today between Manchester Piccadilly and Eccles. Anyone wishing to try out a new tram can catch one on the same service for the time being, but be prepared for up to an hoursish wait? I might try my luck tomorrow.
