Monsall Tram Stop
Monsall Tram Stop
Monsall is a new build on the line of a former dismantled heavy rail line. Taken on the first day of operation of the Metrolink extension to Oldham. As the electronic screen tells us, a tram is approaching. We are also informed that the next tram to St Werburgh's Road will be along in 14 minutes. And if the time is correct then comparing it to the information in the photograph's EXIF data the clock in my camera is 12 minutes fast (less an hour slow as it's still set to GMT).
