Not sure if you know of this place/have been/want to go, Blue...but thought I would post the link anyway, as it's a place I would really like to get to on my holidays in a couple of weeks time.

Crich Tramway Village (http://www.tramway.co.uk/smx/cms/home/)

It's a great website, that goes through the various trams there too with great pics (do you do tram models as well as buses?).

Any requests, mate? :D

I'd love to visit Crich (pronounced to rhyme with cry with a "ch" in the end, for the uninitiated!). Maybe next time in the UK. I haven't followed the link, but it's in Derbyshire somewhere isn't it?

Sandtoft (near Doncaster) is another site I'd like to visit, with its preserved trolleybuses. And Amberley in West Sussex.

Mind you, we have hundreds of trams in Melbourne (literally) but none are double deckers. Still a few W class ones from the 1950s running on certain lines only.

Definitely next time you are in the UK (hopefully soon) we will all go visit this together methinks. :yes:
Have you been on the Snowdon Mountain Railway at all?
