October 2023

(Published 22nd October 2023.) I ended up making another trip to Nottingham while the Goose Fair was taking place, so I went to that but also went to Hucknall and also got new or first photos of some stops between there and the city centre.

December 2022

(Published 30th December 2022.) A trip to Nottingham to attend the Christmas market has resulted in some new photos of the Nottingham Station stop — unfortunately I didn't end up going anywhere else with anything new.

(Published 29th August 2022.) Finally went on another day out to Nottingham, and took some new photos. Signs have finally been updated at phase one stops, and there's new ticket machines and smart card readers too.

November 2019 & March 2020

(Published 26th April 2020.) A trip to Nottingham for Christmas shopping in November only resulted in one new photo as I didn't see anything new. Subsequently though, I spotted on British Trams Online that Wilkinson Street stop had got phase two-style signage so in March I made a slight detour during a car journey to have a look — indeed, most signage had been replaced, only leaving the original platform end navigation signs (which continue to refer to the long-closed Station Street stop). I made a further detour to check Phoenix Park as well but that still had old signage.

A trip to photograph some (non-NET related) things to the north of Nottingham resulted in us being in the right area to park up at Wilkinson Street and get some photos of some stops near the northern end of the system.

In April we went to a circus at the Forest Recreation Ground and I took some new photos of the neighbouring tram stop. We went to the city centre as well but the signs had still not been updated at the stops there so there was nothing new to photograph.

I finally made it to Nottingham again, for a short visit to do some Christmas shopping. I thought I wasn't going to find anything new to photograph at first, having found all the line 1 stops in the city centre still have the original signage specifying Station Street as the southbound destination more than two years after it closed. But, at a late stage after it had got dark I found a ticket machine and a passenger information display at Nottingham Station I wasn't previously aware of, and found the kiosk at Clifton South had been repurposed.

A trip to Nottingham for some Christmas shopping has resulted in some new photos. As nothing has changed in the city centre where we went first (yes, the signs still referred to Station Street) most of the photos ended up being taken at dusk or at night, with some of the ones during the former unfortunately coming out pretty badly due to such lighting being difficult for cameras to cope with.

The first trip to Nottingham of the year has resulted in first photos of Clifton Centre and two other stops on that line, and a bit more. There's no new photos of city centre stops as I didn't notice that anything had changed (yes, that does mean the signs still referred to Station Street, a stop that closed months ago, and not to Clifton South and Toton Lane).

A couple of trips to Nottingham earlier in the month have resulted in some new photos. Some of the photos were taken at night (all of them in fact during the second trip as we went in the evening in order to see a show) -- unfortunately I completely forget to change the setting on my camera during the first trip so all the photos, including those at night were taken in the "Day Landscape" mode so the night shots of Toton Lane and Bramcote Lane have probably come out worse than they would have done had I remembered to change the mode. Night shots of Clifton South and Royal Centre taken during the second trip were with the camera in the right mode thankfully.

Phase two has finally opened so we went to Nottingham to have a go on it, and that means I've got photos of some of the new stops.

The look of the website has been updated to match the design of the stop name signs on phase two, which I'm assuming will be / are being rolled out on line one (the original southbound signs refer to Station Street as the destination, so something certainly needs to be done with them).

When we booked to go and see a show in Nottingham this month around a year ago I thought, "phase two will definitely be open by then". Well, it wasn't, so the photos I've taken as part of that trip are not of phase two stops, but rather three phase one stops I hadn't previously covered. Still, I guess there's a fair chance I wouldn't have got photos of these stops had phase two opened in time so it'll probably result in me having photos of more stops than I otherwise would have in the end.
