Much excitement today (for me :) ) as road resurfacing works have exposed the tram tracks turning off Staniforth Road to the old terminus - hopefully more to come as the work progresses!

Don't think the ordinary rails were manganese, the cast parts of the junctions were and that's why these were recovered, they had scrap value.

I think the standard rails were ordinary steel

A pocket full of pennies was our passport to a Saturday's adventure in the 1950's. A morning at the pictures then a ride on the trams all afternoon. Sheer bliss, all for around half a crown. W/E.
