Hi John,

Great shots, when you say that the line is a mile long, does that include
the second section, I mean is the extention open yet? I did think they had a
preserved Liverpool bogie car preserved there too. I was aware that Blacpool
are running the trams but to what extenet, do they supply the crews? Can
imagine that a one mile line would not be over popular with the crews from
the Blackpool line.

Cheers

Right. I gather the consensus of opinion is that I can post these photos that
may or may not be off topic.

To avoid any misunderstanding I only visited the Birkenhead Tramway in
Birkenhead once so what I say is my impression from talking to staff and not a
policy statement on behalf of anyone.

Anyway the tramway itself is about a mile long and runs through former
dockland on the Mersey. Its owned by the local council but operated by
Blackpool transport services who also opperate the Blackpool and Fleetwood
tramway.
