Service Fleet
The tramway operates a regular number of cars from each type of class depending on the weather, with the roofed toastracks most often being used; the winter saloons are retained for inclement weather and the fully open toastracks for high summer. A selection of these can usually be seen outside the tramcar depot where they are stored in the summer months.

Famous quotes containing the words service and/or fleet:
“Civilization is a process in the service of Eros, whose purpose is to combine single human individuals, and after that families, then races, peoples and nations, into one great unity, the unity of mankind. Why this has to happen, we do not know; the work of Eros is precisely this.”
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
“Believe me, if all those endearing young charms,
Which I gaze on so fondly today,
Were to change by tomorrow, and fleet in my arms,
Like fairy-gifts fading away.”
—Thomas Moore (1779–1852)
