Behind every journey on #Supertram in South #Yorkshire is the work of the Presentation Team, which maintains trams, stops, shelters and #infrastructure to keep the network safe and welcoming. Alongside routine duties, the team carries out periodic deep cleans. Recently, a Siemens tram underwent a two-day programme in the workshop, beginning with a detailed inspection and structured plan to avoid service disruption.
Specialist equipment, including new chewing gum removal machinery, was used to tackle hard-to-reach areas. Overhead panels and signage were removed and cleaned, seat bases dismantled, stair edging resealed, and floors, cab and exterior thoroughly treated.
The project brought together engineering and facilities staff, with Managing Director Sean English joining the work. It forms part of an ongoing programme to maintain standards across the 30-year-old fleet ahead of new trams expected in 2030, subject to funding, alongside wider stop refurbishments.

This #YorkshireDales walk circuits Threshfield Moor passing through Bordley, sometimes known as Bordley Town. It passes lovely limestone scenery with good views too. Uses a number of clear tracks so less prone to mud. See https://www.happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/YorkshireDales/Threshfield%20Moor/Hiking%20Pages%20-%20Threshfield%20Moor.htm

A Wuthering Heights weekend, you say? So, beautiful moors, howling wind, romance.
And by romance I mean racism, classism and poor choices.
The only vacation where the weather and the characters are equally hostile.

In Richmond, North Yorkshire, legend claims a secret tunnel runs between the town's castle and a ruined abbey in the nearby hamlet of Easby. It's said that soldiers one day discovered a mysterious tunnel in the castle dungeons and - due to its narrow dimensions - decided to send a young drummer boy along it while they followed his beats from above. About half-a-mile outside town, however, his drumming ceased and he was never seen again. Folklore states that on dark quiet nights, you can still hear his drumming beneath Richmond's marketplace. Similar legends are found elsewhere. In Edinburgh, a tunnel beneath the Royal Mile was explored by a young piper who met a similar fate and the faint sounds of his bagpipes can also be heard in the wee hours. #Folklore #FolkloreThursday #BookologyThursday #history #mythology #Yorkshire #ghosts #paranormal #gothic #weird
