Celebrating a closure

Crich Tramway museum has some beautifully restored trams - I was up there on Saturday - but I had to say I think this paint job, authentic though it is, is in very poor taste The Last Tram in Sheffield .... and they CELEBRATED?

Of course, the irony is that there are now trams BACK in Sheffield.

Perhaps it hurt the more seeing that Melksham Station was closed 40 years ago today ... and then re-opened 21 years ago. I'm frankly fearful that our current battle against service cuts, if lost, will lead to a further cut of all the remaining services ....
