Tram Day at Crich Tramway Village
Tram Day at Crich Tramway Village on Saturday 18th September, is a great chance to ride on a range of vintage trams.
Home to the National Tramway Museum, Crich Tramway Village usually runs 2 – 3 trams per day during their opening season, with more during special events. However, on Tram Day, most of the 14 or so operational trams will be running, giving the chance to check out the interiors of the many different varieties from around the UK and some from abroad.
Amanda Blair, Marketing & Business Development Manager said:
“We have found that it is not only tram and transport enthusiasts who love to visit on Tram Day, but families who can bring their children to experience rides on several trams, with their distinctive liveries and styles. For those who remember the trams running in major cities prior to 1960, it is a chance to enjoy the nostalgia and see what an amazing job the Workshop team do in preserving and maintaining the trams, many of which were built in the early 1900s. Many of our works vehicles will also be in operation, and we will also be displaying trams that are either undergoing workshop attention, or will shortly enter our Workshop, to enable them to return to service.”
There is no need to pre-book, as payment can be made on arrival. Face coverings are required to ride on the trams, and advised when visiting the indoor areas, such as the exhibitions.
Doors open at 9.45am with trams running from 10.30am until 5pm (last admissions 4pm).
