    The tram to halfway never reaches its destination. It just goes half way.

    I love that Halfway is a terminus and not half-way at all! Keep up the great videos. I enjoy watching and love your enthusiasm.

      I think its a pub and its Halfway to somewhere in the Derbyshire dales

      They should extend that branck to be double the size, hence solving this pressing issue.

      I think it was originally halfway between Rotherham and Chesterfield with a pub of the same name on the old main road but no one seems to be sure.

    Lived in Sheffield for a while, it's a wonderful city, very studenty. Meadow Hall, unaffectionally known as Meadow HELL, convinced me that the UK has become a mono culture of shopping malls. Everywhere, there will be an M&S, Pizza Hut, Next, Costa, McDonald's etc.
    A city/town loses its individuality to the bland corporations. I've particularly noticed this with food. Going to Plymouth and being unable to buy a pasty. In London watching Pie 'n: Mash shops closing down. Going to Newcastle and asking for Pan Haggerty or a Saveloy dip.
    Love the new mic and that you kept the glitch with you in the vid, so honest. Keep up the good work.
    PS I'm learning to love trams

      I agree. The big corporates have sterilised towns and cities. Small independents should be given cheaper rates and benefits so they can compete. They're proudly opened a huge new shopping centre in the middle of my town but it's just the same old crap inside.

      You should come back to Sheffield to visit again, it's changed a lot and not in a good way. Fargate is dead, John Lewis is gone and half of city centre is just housing or soon to be housing anyway

    A few years ago they got Jarvis Cocker from Pulp to read out the tram announcements.

    Love the new mic, it sounds great. My I request you mention fares, days tickets and so on in future videos like these? It would be a quiet nice addition. Just a "Single fares are between £X and £Y, but a day ticket is £Z" if you get me. It'd be a great addition to this little series.

    I know someone from Barnsley! I’ve never rode the SuperTram and nobody has done such a recent video like this. The fact you also put in time for this when you’ve got real life stuff is mad!

    Another excellent vid. Been really enjoying your uploads.
    Living by the Wirral line in wrexham helped me find your channel and inspired me to head out there and explore again for the first time since before covid.

    Side benefit of the new mic (which sounded great btw) - you can actually point at things instead of just nodding your head! :)

    Been a long while since I've ridden the Supertram. My grandparents lived in Middlewood, so I would ride the whole line to Meadowhall and back! 🙂
