The tram brought down the overhead lines at the start of the rush-hour. Passengers were evacuated by walking several hundred metres along the track. No assistance was given to the elderly, disabled or a woman with child and baby buggy. Problems didn't finish there as the main bus service runs along the Soho Roadanother 600m away.

Benchmark on St James's Church
This Ordnance Survey benchmark on St James's Church was established in 1844 during the First primary levelling of England & Wales, and was levelled with a height of 524.7920 feet (159.9566 metres) above mean sea level (Liverpool datum). It was included as a side level on the Manchester to Gloucester levelling line. The surveyor's description was "No. 308(a). Handsworth New Church. Bolt in West face of tower ; 0.87 ft. above surface" (Public Abstract p.30). It can be found on the north-west face of the tower, just to the north of the south-west buttress, just south of a side door. The centre bolt and part of the datum line have been cemented over. It appears on the 1890 OS map.
