Station Street terminus in the first week of the trams

The trams were on their third day of operation when I took myself back home for a trip round old haunts on a dismal March day which reminded me of my childhood. A Hucknall tram is about to leave Station Street terminus, which is built on the arches which once carried the Great Central Railway (to London Marylebone) south from Weekday Cross, then on a girder bridge over the Midland Station (behind the camera) and through The Meadows. The spire of the former High Pavement Unitarian Chapel at Weekday Cross is in the distance to the left of the tram.
