A Hucknall bound tram departs from Butlers Hill. 201 was the first of Nottingham's new trams. The choice of fleet number was made to provide continuity with the old electric tram fleet, which just reached the number 200, and ceased operation in 1936. This was continuing the tradition set by Croydon Tramlink, where the new trams continued the old series used by London Transport.
