Lovely video on a beautiful day, absolutlely love the trams! Pity we couldn't hear what Gareth was saying, but Josh came over loud and clear, so that was great!
When y ou said to expect some big change regarding the webcams, I wouldn't have thought this big change was going to be the closing down of the Riverside cam. I really didn't. 😒
So the signals between motormen (read drivers) were mentioned. How does a motorman indicate to another that they have another car following? Do they give a number or is it a generic "another car following" signal? And are there any other hand signals that don't get as regularly used? Great video chaps.
If they are leading, they will give the oncoming driver a 'peace sign' showing 2 fingers. In the rare occasion there are 3 trams they will show 3 fingers!
40:15 If they are lead-acid cells they would be 2.1 volts per cell, so there are probably 60 cells which gives 126 volts, and on charge I have seen that system run to 130 volts ! ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡
Really looking forward to our visit very soon! x
We were there last Sunday with our two black n white terriers. We live in the new forest but we were staying in bridport. We totally enjoyed the day!
Nice Tram, greetings from Germany 😊

it would be better if trams could couple up
Old trams cant couple up Either ropes or 2 trams follow each
