Metrolink doesnt seem to be garnering much support from there twitter followers with there services running through Cornbrook suffering endless delays day after day .
Question now is has the new signalling system that there using now caused untold damage to there reputation ?

1007 1012 1016 1017 1022 1023 2001 2003 are the only T68/A left in service.
1011 is the only one that has left for scrap.
All the rest are stored at Trafford depot except 1002 1009 and 1021 which are currently stored at Queens Road.
Hope this helps.

I rode from East Didsbury to Shaw, and from Ashton to Picadilly Gardens today. I could have travelled from Manchester (or St Werburgh's Road) to Shaw last Christmas but am so pleased I left it til now. I was able to see the new Oldham section not quite joined near Freehold, but joined just beyond Oldham Mumps. As you will all know, it will only have been possible to travel from Oldham Mumps ex-BR to Derker by Metrolink from 16Dec12 to 17Jan14.
I rode 2001 from Market Street to Old Trafford. Could this be my final T68/A ride? I was continuing to Sale, but due to delays the driver let us all off to wait for the next tram.
