DSCF5289 Trent Barton (trentbarton) FJ58 KJK and NET tram 227 at Beeston - 25 Sep 2016

Sunday 25 September 2016 (0907) – Competing modes from Beeston Interchange into Nottingham city centre. Trent Barton (trentbarton) 701 (FJ58 KJK), a Wright Eclipse bodied Volvo B7RLE new in September 2008, working the 0839 ‘indigo’ service from Briar Top was scheduled to arrive at Broadmarsh bus station at 0927 (passing the railway station about two minutes or so before). Nottingham Express Transit (NET) 227, a a Spanish built Alstom Citadis new 2013-2014, was scheduled at the railway station at 0926. The track on the right of the tram appeared to be a spur allowing trams from the city direction to diverge from the main westbound track and travel towards the platform for city bound (eastbound) services. The platform for westbound trams running through towards Chilwell and Toton Lane is across the roadway.
