You can wait half an hour for a tram and then dozens turn
up.
It is an amazing picture and not one that my friend Alan can help me with.
Had there been a traffic jam, or was this just one of those regular things which Manchester commuters put up with as commuters do?
I bet there will be someone who knows, but failing that perhaps it's time to trawl the newspaper cuttings looking for stories of traffic jams in 1938.
There is just a hint from the expressions of the conductor and driver that something is not quite right.
