407 reposes in the garage, the latest in clean green travel. However, the tracks on the floor are a giveaway that public transport wth no emissions at the point of use are nothing new; they date from the depots opening in 1929, at which point the tramway was already under conversion to trolleybus operation. In most areas the rails were removed in world war 2 to reclaim the steel, but those in this depot survived as the overhead was never converted to two wire operation, so the rails remained the return path for traction current via a skate fitted to the trolleybuses.
