Volunteer Conductor at Crich Tramway Village (where it seems I spend the majority of my time). Photos taken when not undertaking safety-critical duties and views are my own and not those of any company or charity I work/volunteer for.

Halloween at Crich today! Blackpool 40 was the tram of choice for this spooky special, which absorbed the crowds well. Thanks to my driver Tim, DI Jason and everyone else crewing today for such an excellent day to end the month!

Another day on Blackpool 630 today, and most likely my last. Lovely tram, but a few hiccups due to slippery rail conditions meant we emptied the north sand hoppers on the limit of shunt trip. Thanks to my driver Adam for making for an excellent day!

Another duty at Crich today. Blackpool 630 was the tram of choice today due to its predicted imminent removal from service. A fairly busy day for a Thursday, making it a very enjoyable day. Thanks to my driver Adrian.

2nd day on the trot at Crich today. 167 was the tram of choice due to the heavy forecasted rain. In the end it was a great day, considering my loathing for the pantograph cars, and we even got to do a turn on the northbound track at Wakebridge. Thanks to my driver Jason for an excellent day!

Another day at Crich today. Glasgow 22 was the tram of choice after a shuffling of crew. Lovely day, with a little bit of rain at the start of the day which then dried up and the sun was shining. Thanks to my driver Dave and also congrats to Andy for passing his DI assessment today!

A few photos from Crich to get myself started on this app as opposed to the other one...
