Right well, i mantain that LRT are not trams, but either way. In the United Kingdom there are 5 'tram systems' excluding that of Blackpool.
They list as:
Manchester Metrolink.
Midland Metro
Nottingham
Sheffield Supertram
Croydon Tramlink
----
As shown Sheffield uses Stagecoach colours. Might be worth doing original colours and stagecoach ones?
Croydon orginially was a red livery as the pictures to come will show, however they are in First livery now.
The REMO uses Croydon, so we may be able to help you there..

Remember the start of the thread. I e-mailed a particularly nice chap about the use of his pictures of Blackpool Trams for reference.
He used to play TTD too!

However that site only used Blackpool trams, this site is trams from throughout the UK.

** Dries Hair **
I present all views of the metrolink tram, I do however need to do some randomisation to make it any good. Suggestions please.

oooh nice, *goes to update site*
I think the slight curve you got on it is spot on
And after a little randomisation, it will be very nice.
One thing i dont quite get is, that on the | view, you can see little roof windows, but on \ & / you dont, or is that just way too hard to draw?

No that was just a mistake, I forgot to get rid of them because I adapted my Supertram drawing... will change that.
Posted: 08 Oct 2006 20:57
Ahh right, that explains it 
Posted: 08 Oct 2006 21:00

Posted: 08 Oct 2006 21:04

Ok, I realised when removing those roof thingies that there were no pantographs so I hastily drew those in too.
Edit: on the site you say that all images are credited to Blackpooltrams.com or whatever it is, but you got the one of the supertram from this site: http://www.thetrams.co.uk/supertram/newlivery/

Hah lol, there is always something lol.
But looking good
Is there any variations on these trams (I.E different or older / newer liveries)
Edit: Updated site
Edit2: Updated site about the copyrights as pointed out by Ameecher above.

I don't think so. There are two types of metrolink tram, series 1 and series 2. They look identical apart from the destination boards are dot-matrix on the series two so basically they are the same, as far as TT is concerned anyway!
As for the liveries I think metrolink has always carried this dull uninspired livery...
Edit: I also meant under the copyright notice link on the hoempage... Also I think it would be useful if you had a Home link on every page. If you can be bothered that is, I know there is the BACK button but not every likes that...

That it isAmeecher wrote: this dull uninspired livery...
Oh well, i think thats one tram pretty well done for now
Just got loads of blackpool models that need other views doing. (info and current drawings on the site) Plus a few supertram models need finishing, and seen as everyone and the uncle named bob has tried it, a decsion on the best, Plus a possible livery for the older version of the supertram.
