Wirral Tramway Trip Down The Track On Wallasey No.78 Historic Tram Cab Ride UK [4k 60fps]

Come and enjoy a trip on a historic tram, this journey is filmed on Wallasey No.78 and was taken at the Wirral Tramway, at Wirral Transport Museum. Take in all the sights and sounds of Liverpool and Birkenhead as you travel down the track outside the museum. I had this tram virtually to myself because of mothers day, and the sun was shining, it was just a perfect day! Though built as late as 1920 by Brush, Wallasey No.78 was old-fashioned in design, having open upper deck balconies similar to Liverpool's Bellamy cars. 78 was the very last tram built for Wallasey and it only ran until 1933 when the town went over completely to buses. For more than 50 years, the saloon of Wallasey 78 was used for storage purposes in a North Wales farmyard. No longer in use it was handed over to the society by the farmer in 1986. Aided by workers from Community Industry, about a year's restoration work was carried out starting in 1987. Supported by Heritage Lottery cash, work was restarted in 1997. The car has now been restored to its original 1920s appearance with that unusual lime green and cream livery and joined the operational fleet in August 2002. Wirral transport museum is a fantastic day out, free entry to the museum and only a small fee for the a ride on the trams, it really is good value for money. “ Come and enjoy the sights and sounds of yesteryear at the Wirral Transport Museum, where the volunteers of the Merseyside Tramway Preservation Society restore and preserve transport of the past for the delight and benefit of the present and the future. Take a ride back in time on one of our electric heritage trams and let the memories of a bygone age come flooding back. As you wander through our fascinating collection of trams, buses, cars, motorcycles and cycles, see the delight on your children's faces as they gaze in wonder on the miniature world of our model railway, while you explore the vast array of transport and other fascinating memorabilia. There's so much to see – so much to enjoy and now, thanks to the support of Wirral Borough Council, so much more. For, following the completion of a substantial refurbishment programme in the Spring of 2018, we can now offer our visitors much improved facilities such as a new separate foyer and entrance, a tea room, sales kiosk (formed from two former Victorian Mersey Ferry booths), a suite of toilets, including for those with mobility or other physical issues, a lift to the second level, leading to a new Viewing Gallery and new or improved displays. There really is something for everyone and we pride ourselves in the warmth of our welcome and the friendliness of our volunteers."
