Another six inches of snow fell last night, rendering the Museum even more picturesque than before! Here are some views taken over the weekend when we were open, the first one though shows the scene this morning – no trams today!

Below: A couple of unconventional views of Gateshead 10 and Sunderland 16 at work.

Below: Two rather more conventional scenes. Once the railhead is clear the trams run very well in the snow, though deeper snow tends to trigger the lifeguards/trays.

Below: Not seen on the blog before, this is Flint Mill on the Beamish Burn below Pockerley.

Below: Not many gallopers keep running in the snow I suspect?! A respectable number of visitors braved the conditions to ride and see Santa!
