A lift takes passengers from Ruislip Avenue to the Manchester-bound platform at Monsall tram stop. Monsall is a new build on the line of a former dismantled heavy rail line. This was taken on the first day of operation of the Metrolink extension to Oldham. The lift wasn't in operation but I was informed it would ready for use in about half an hour. Fortuneatly I was able to use the steps.
