The first Tram Train services carrying passengers have operated between Rotherham and Sheffield. A number of videos have been shared on YouTube showing the first train, a cab ride from Rotherham Parkgate to Rotherham Central and a cab ride from Meadowhall South to Rotherham Central.
Sadly the opening day was marred by an incident where a lorry collided with one of the new Tram Trains causing it to derail.
