Tram Museum  

Posted by Feral Beast in ,

Hello.mrgreen

I went to the Tram Museum at Hawthorn I and got to go on all the old trams, ner, ner, ner, ner.razz

Dad used to be a tram driver and where all the trams were, he used to get his uniform.eek

I also got to go in the driving compartment and I got to go on a cable tram.
I also got to ring the bell and I got to go on a L-class, W-class, C-class, Z-class, W7-class, B-class, Y1-class, W1-class, X2class, No.8 class which was nice, S.W.S-class, SW6-class, A-class, B1-class, and a B2-class.cool

The No.8-class was my favourite 'coz it had lead light windows, and I loved being in it's driving compartment and it was very Art Deco.biggrin

There was even a tram from Sweden and another one was from Germany.eek

Also there was one weird one that had bits of old W-class trams but only on the front and back 'coz it was pedal powered but sadly you couldn't go on it.cry

It was so fun walking through all the tram carriages.
It was so fun that I lost Dad a few times.lol

There was a room where there was an old tram that was stripped so people that are training to be tram drivers can see how a tram works and plus there would be fake problems with the tram so those people could find out what to do if there's a problem.surprised

It was so cool that when Dad and I were leaving I didn't want to leave but sadly Dad made me leave so I did as I was told, and when Dad and I came home I tied him up and I gave him 1000 whippings.mad

More importantly, was there a Blackpool - Fleetwood Tram-car there? They're the oldest electric trams in the world, which might explain why they always break down whenever I get on one.

Sorry Brian, I don't think there was one.

Thanks Oirishlad, and if you play your cards right you might be able to do the same thing.

P.S ("playing your cards right" means if your good you might be able to do that thing.) ;)
