Thanks broma... on reflection I did see one odd tram and another 4 abreast so that looks like 5? not sure there was a sixth one , ie tram 22? can anyone confirm that 22 has arrived?  Thanks.  Not sure how many are actually due this year though.

There are certainly five - in March I was in Wednesbury and there were four in line abreast and another just being unloaded

How many new trams are at the depot now?
When are the new trams going to be entered in service?

I'm sure I read on Twitter this morning that one of the trams will be at St Georges on Saturday. Can't find the tweet though

The tweet was on the Network West Midlands feed but seems to shave been deleted. Not happening now I take it

I'm Guessing all the construction work ajacent to the original tram depot will be the new depot premises?.. Are ALL of these new trams visible from the northbound platform??

@windy miller
The last (& only) time I looked was when there were 6 new toys. All were easily visible from onboard a southbound tram just after leaving Wednesbury P'way. They weren't all visible from the Gt. Western st. platform, furthermore I could only identify one set (18) from the photo's that I took.

According to the RTI screens on the platforms, one of the new trams was out on test on Wednesday. I travelled the whole line but didn't see it.

One of the new trams was at Soho (Benson Road) stop this evening at about 9 pm - presumably route testing or driver training.  I didn't catch the number.

A new tram was in Wolves this evening travelling very slowly with loads of 'orange people' on it i'm about 90% sure it was Tram 19 (first one I've seen BTW  ;D
