Notes :
(1) This trip was a repeat of the fully booked trip of 5th June 2005, to the
same route and timings.
(2) Due to a build up of leaves in the track, time was wasted while staff tried
to set points for the Centre Platform. This was eventually achieved just before
the tram would have been forced to continue to Wilkinson Street due to following
trams.
(3) Due to us running 'out of path', (see note 2), we used the Non-Preferred
Platform on both visits to Station Street. On the second visit (14.18 ~ 14.28),
we were booked into the Preferred Platform.
(4) On final run North from Station Street to Depot, we were booked to run
through the Centre Platform at Forest again, but even though NET staff had
turned up and were clearing out the track, we used the 'normal' West Platform.
