One of the first batch of trams for Metrolink, which opened the system in 1992. It is seen on the route to Bury via Victoria Station. These Class T68 trams were built by Firema in Italy in 1991-92. Like the rest of the class they were all withdrawn a few years ago. A few have been preserved but this one appears to have been scrapped.
