I am glad to hear it , those are cool trams.Sheffield Supertram, and I really enjoyed it.
Nice picture .
The were considered but omitted, it appeared the wheels on the vehicles were not covered as on trams, and the railway didn't appear to have any street running sections as far as I could tell. The vehicles are partially based on old Blackpool Tramcars that had the corner doors though. The border between trams and trains is murky at times, and it is fine for anyone to mention anything which is not clear. Both those Manx lines were mentioned before your post, so I might be wrong.Seemed to have omitted the Manx Electric and Snaefell which are essentially tramways or are they included in Douglas?
The MER/SMR trams are very much based on the Blackpool and Fleetwood Tramroad design.The were considered but omitted, it appeared the wheels on the vehicles were not covered as on trams, and the railway didn't appear to have any street running sections as far as I could tell.

I had completely forgotten there was a tram at the Glasgow Garden Festival!Forgot to say I have also used the trams in Strasbourg, which now extend over the border to Keil-Am-Rhein in Germany.
I have also ridden on the trams in Basel and Cologne.
Plus the tramway at the Glasgow Garden Festival in 1988.
And the tramway at the Black Country Living Museum in Dudley.
I not only travelled on Copenhagen's last tram route? (the 6 from memory) but stayed in a house close to its terminus for a few weeks. This was 1969.Two closed tramways that I have travelled on, and that have not yet been mentioned in this thread, include Leeds (so I have been told - I was too young to remember) and Copenhagen (closed 1972). Other overseas tramways that I have used include Helsinki, Leningrad, Moscow and Hong Kong island (together with the Peak Tram). Other overseas systems that I recall seeing (but never used) include Aarhus (closed 1971, but now revived), Helsingborg (closed 1967 when Sweden changed to driving on the right), Berne (plus the Worb interurban) and Zurich. I vaguely recall seeing, but not using, Sheffield trams in 1960.
I missed that by weeks on my first visit to the area.I was too young to appreciate it, or to remember much but I don't think any body else has claimed the Mumbles Railway so far
Sadly the preserved Mumbles Tram that ended up in Leeds at the Middleton Railway was destroyed in a fire. Nice tram car builds by the look of them.I missed that by weeks on my first visit to the area.
