Tram 03 was in its original livery when photographed here in June 1995. It is approaching the Westfield tram stop, which can be seen to the far left. In the tram's back window the destination is shown as Shalesmoor. This was as far as the trams went until later in the year, when the lines to Malin Bridge and Middleton were fully opened. The buildings on the right, partly hidden by the tram, are on the Holbrook Industrial Estate. The tram's pantograph, which collects electric current from the overhead wire, can be clearly seen in this view. The tram is now number 103.
