I stayed at the 24hr Tramathon through the duration. Tram 69 was operating from 12pm Friday through to 6am Saturday, were its carbon block on the trolley had worn down and shattered by the end of its shift. Lisbon 730 ran for the rest of the Tramathon through to 12pm Saturday where it ran alongside Wallasey 78 for the See Greene event.

Here's just one photo I've uploaded taken in the early hours: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thomasharrison/10888949025/

Will be fantastic to have an operational Green Goddess operating locally - only nearest example at present is 869 at Crich which I don't think is operational at present.

So in the future in Birkenhead, you could soon be sitting on a piece of Manchester's tramway history - interesting!
