LAUNCESTON, TASMANIA MAY 2024 - Ray Mudway
Ray sent me the two photos shown. He reports nothing much happening as everyone getting older. Same old story as a certain Tramway Museum in Derbyshire.
The gang-car is to do the safety-run & put out the signs each day so that tram #29 has less to do - it really needs a full rebuild after 20 yrs running. |

FUNICULAR DA GRACA LISBON MAY 2024
A new funicular has opened is Lisbon from Graca near the Mirador for 200 metres steep down to the streets below.
Rather startling change from the other funiculars! |
These very modern looking ars carry approx 20 passengers |
As can be seen from this view it is a very settp short run. When we went to find it at the bottom station, it was cut off due to road works and about 1km to walk around! |

This is the new tramstop for Tipton being constructed on the formation of the old railway line. |
