  Hi. Will someone please tell the people in charge of the "Bee Network" app to download a demonstration of how to work the app. It is so confusing. I have asked for an instruction book on how to use it but did not get one. I have informed Bee Network that I do not understand it as it is so complicated. I have asked other people how it works and they have said that they have uninstalled it but it is too complicated and two others said they have it but can not use it. I can not find anyone who can show me how to use it. Please tell someone to put a KZread video on showing us how the thing works. Thank You Garry Uk

• 
  @tramographyMCR3 ай бұрын

  Yes, but they are dim and doesn't help much for the driver's visibility in a tunnel. This usually means that trams have to run at a reduced speed while travelling through one.

  Hello. Such memories. At university in Manchester in the 1970s I lived in East Didsbury, Didsbury Village, West Didsbury and Chorlton in that order, a year in each. Also in the 1960s I used to visit my Mother's family using the St Pancras to Manchester Central route. I hadn't realised that it had gone through Didsbury. Thanks

  With how the system has "evolved" over the years, i think the it's simply too far down a dead end. Too much of it is stuck on roads at huge cost already, purely to bring costs down. To spend even more and not do that undermines the original plan. This is one of the reasons more people are driving, this network has become much slower per mile (takes me 45 minutes to go 3 miles), much more expensive and unreliable. And a lot of it is politics - we can't self-fund a proper replacement project like the underground that never was, budgets are being cut, unaffordable apartment blocks are going up only to plug funding cuts and it's replacing London as the place for landlords to dump their money and overcharge on rent. For every minute longer on public transport, working people are stuck paying with their money and free time. It's not paid, it's not fun, it's been bad enough people have passed out on commutes. It impacts home/work balance and limits how available jobs are for people, forcing rent even higher for better connected places. Quality of life will only improve if the service is not restricted to our crappy roads whatsoever, the 7mph corners (WTF), and was restarted from the ground up for the current/future demands, not this amalgam of mess that has only gone downhill the more it expanded. In the grand scheme of the UK economy it would cost next to nothing. take a one-off wealth/tax chunk off the top 1% to pay for it. Many of them caused these problems in the first place.

  There were extra services for an Old Trafford football match on the Sunday this was filmed on. After the rush ended, the extra trams began to return to the depot. Some returned to Old Trafford Depot, which meant they would terminate at Old Trafford, and some returned to Cheetham Hill Depot, *which means they would terminate at Victoria.*

• 
  @tramographyMCR4 ай бұрын

  @@BBspotter I'm a Metrolink KZread channel, so I kinda of like every tram stop. I can't pick just one without saying another. Central Park has this cool structure above it, and I really like it. Oldham King Street's design catches your eye from the right distance. Wythenshawe Town Centre's design is similar. Sale retained the old canopy from the railway station and it looks beautiful. Radcliffe has a curve on the platforms, so does Prestwich. Makes it satisfying watching the tram coming in. Sale Water Park has that interesting "old railway line" vibe to it, even though it isn't. The trams appearing and disappearing around the bends is satisfying. The middle-of-nowhere vibe to it feels peaceful being there as well, as not many people use it. Dane Road's whole look, the bridge, the slight curve on the platforms, the building resembling a ticket office right next to it, right by a relatively quiet road, I love it. Every stop on the Eccles Line including Cornbrook (Eccles, Ladywell, Weaste, Langworthy, Broadway, Harbour City, Anchorage, Salford Quays, Exchange Quay, Pomona, Cornbrook) has this interesting tile design on the platforms that really makes it feel more like a tram stop than an old railway station like most of the other lines. Sorry if that's too much

  there's no spare capacity at Cornbrook in the "Bridgewater Bottleneck" for any extra South Manchester traffic, something which I warned TfGM about many years ago - Cornbrook needs to be redeveloped into a four-platform stop to cater for growth, possibly by using the adjacent vacant land, and quadrupling the line to Deansgate/Castlefield, plus a third city crossing along Deansgate; meanwhile why not abolish the stupid 20mph speed restriction on Hardy Lane?

  Speeding up trams to the Airport is a good idea, but your way of going about it has some flaws. Firstly, the link at Sale would fail any cost benefit analysis. The cost of tunnelling or bridging the M60 would far outweigh the benefits it would bring. If you were going to do it along with building the Wythenshawe loop, it would probably sink the entire project at the planning stage. Nice thing to have but just building the loop would already bring massive benefits, both quicker and cheaper. Also, using the Sale link to get from Altrincham to the Airport would be ridiculous from both a time and cost aspect. Taking the bus would be quicker and cheaper (a zone 3&4 single costs 40p more than a bus single), as well as not requiring any passengers to travel in the completely wrong direction to get there. If you really must connect Altrincham and the Airport with a tram, sending it around the south of Hale to connect with the loop would be quicker for passengers and probably have a better benefit cost ratio than the Sale link, with the added bonus of being direct. Or just run an express bus at a frequent enough interval. Some nitpicks: Don't rename Sale Water Park. It'll just result in confusion and people will still refer to the old stop as Sale Water Park. Priory Gardens would be a better name. Don't rename Manchester Airport. Just why? What's the point? It's named after the train/bus station and a rename would be unnecessary. You're right, drop the Manchester Airport prefix from Terminal 2. The name Terminal 2 already implies it's at an airport.

  One of the things I most regret about making this video is that some of those decisions I might have just made without thinking twice about it, like the Sale Water Park naming, or the Manchester Airport rename, or the Junction 6 tunnel. This video really was just to put an idea out there, but you actually gave it a reality check with this comment. You're getting a pin right now

  A look at the proposed orbital line would also be great... I would build it as follows Bury via pimhole, Fairfield general hospital, over the roch to heywood south via Middleton joining the Rochdale line at freehold Leave south of Failsworth via Newton heath, Clayton Vale joining the Ashdon line heading east just before edge Lane Turn right at Audenshaw through Denton to join the east didsbuy line at its extension to Stockport for a short way where it would branch via Cheadle to join the Wythenshawe loop of the airport line near benchill Along the link you proposed to Stretford off again down Barton dock road to join the Trafford centre line which would then be extended to meet an extension to the Eccles line at patricroft And then maybe through Salford, Pendlebury to prestwich to join back to the bury line
