I read about recent proposals for rail based improvements around Cambridge. Rather complicated due to the busway that already exists. Ultimately these things are always highjacked by vested interests that think they can make money out of the project by getting it specified to suit them.
It’s interesting to see the tram tracks that were built on former railway lines in South London. And the trams does provide good services in the Croydon, Wimbledon and Sutton areas. With good transport connections with Buses, London Underground (District Line and Northern Line), London Overground, GTR Southern and Thameslink, South Western Railway and Southeastern services. And maybe the Tramlink could of been extended to Lewisham to connect with the DLR (Docklands Light Railway).
Nice to see the tram through fields! About some drivers running through the red light, I am afraid bad habits are spreading. Here in France, most motor car drivers all all bicycle riders with no exception are colour blind!
Great work ..unique perspective. Is New Addington still one of the scruffiest estates in London? When I knew it nearly 20 years ago you dare not leave your car. Crime ridden
As with many similar large estates, it only takes a few antisocial elements and a lack of support from the authorities for problems to get out of control. The trams have helped to deal with the isolation of the area and improved access to employment in Croydon and Central London. On the other hand fleets of police cars with their sirens blaring are still a feature of the area.
Nice update.Enjoy it thank's
Very nice Mr Boogie😀😎
Great video
Fascinating system, real shame we have nothing remotely similar in rural Norfolk. Extremely well done, excellent film. 🤓 Stay safe 💙

Where the track diverges from the old alignment towards Lloyd park they had to demolish 2 or 3 fairly new houses built on the land.
