GOSSELIES TRAM ROUTE REOPENING UPDATE from Mike Russell

Further to my message of 28 May 2013, I have to inform you that I have been advised that the TEC has refused permission for the operation of SE-class motor car 9974 in connection with the re-opening celebrations for this line on 21/22 June.  This refusal has been issued on technical grounds.
Consequently, there will not now be any historic tramcar operation in connection with the re-opening.
It is hoped that the operation of an S-class museum car will be permitted later in the season, but as the car (Sm 9148) is not yet ready, it is not yet possible to give any indication of dates.
