That's the whole problem with tram systems; they can be run at a profit, sure, but they will never earn enough money to repay the cost of building them. Unless it's considered a public good, the business case says don't bother. bracken 07-09-2009, 18:58 And in all likelihood, never will be.

Saracen 1000 08-09-2009, 15:09 Yes welcome to the forum.....I have to say that I use the tram an a regular basis....now. Originally Sheffielders called it the Ghost Train..... on account it was grey.....and always empty..................... Glennis 08-09-2009, 15:17 I like the tram; its a pity it never goes where I want to go. :roll: Ousetunes 08-09-2009, 15:20 And the one that says it goes to Halfway goes all the way!! |
