We saw this tram on a recent visit to an opencast coalmine – it was recovered from old workings at depth. If it was a used car, we might say it was a vintage vehicle with exceptional patina (it might need a polish though!).
We also have a useful glossary of mining terms you can download here: Mine Terms. Most are familiar, but others are more exotic depending on which region of the UK the coalfield is located.
Feel free to share.
