Visiting All Nottingham Tram Stops 

Geoff: “RU-vid, I’ve got a problem: I’m addicted to ticking off train stops.” Me: “Geoff, I’ve got a problem: I’m equally invested in your area of interest. Don’t worry.”

Visited Nottingham for the first time the other day - have to say I was really quite taken with the city . . . And being the transit nerd I am, i rode the whole tram network. Very impressed with it! An excellent way to get around.

Can’t believe you have done a video on Nottingham! The public transport is really good for such a small city it’s quite surprising!

I swear I heard: "Is that one of the newer ones or older ones?" "Yes" "Alright, I concur"

Hey Geoff, not sure if you’ll read this, but you do an amazing job of showing us RU-vid community people things that we might never see or have heard of!

😁I'm old enough to remember Nottingham Victoria station and the wonderful Nottingham Trolleybuses. The city has changed a lot in 6 decades.

FINALLY YOU CAME TO MY CITY!!! It’s crazy seeing you walk the streets I walk everyday

An idea for a future video maybe, like a sleeper showdown!? Caledonian VS GWR that would be awesome! Also MASSIVE fan! :))

hey geoff, we went to nottingham in september 2018 everything by public transport even from france with the eurostar no london and from london to nottingham by train, and there we stayed at The Bentinck Hotel very nice hotel and centrally located opposite the train station and tram station and all buses stop opposite, that tram's were very cool and buses too and we have also been to the Crich Tramway Village by train, highly recommended with kind regards from Wietze Braem, from Belgium

"Newer ones or older ones?" "Yes." :D

My grandma lived in Clifton all her life. When me and my brother visited and we wanted to go to the centre, we'd have to take the bus. I remember it taking ages. It's good that Nottingham finally has a tram. A pity my grandma never lived to see it. :(

Can’t believe I never knew you were here 😔 must admit I am chuckling at some of the pronunciations of place names 😂

Having grown up in Nottingham and now living in London it's surreal and unexpected to see you in my home city. I love it! It truly was a historic day when the long delayed tram service finally opened in the early 2000's. I was about 6 and felt like I'd been waiting forever at that point (Just to be irritating/show off my local knowledge: Basford = Baseford)

The stop at Nottingham station and the ramps leading towards it looks exactly like something you'd build in Cities: Skylines.

Can I just say, as someone (as a student) who has to commute to Nottingham by the tram must days (from Totan Lane) I feel very honoured that the tram network is on here. This is the first video I've really watched by Geoff and I already feel inspired to do some of these trips that are in his video's

Meet people at slab square in front of the “Council House” at the “Left Lion”

6:05 one cool thing with the level crossings is that up the Hucknall branch there is sometimes a double stay and even a triple stay where there is a train and a tram crossing over and sometimes a tram goes by then a train and then another tram heading the other way

On a visit to nottingham a few years ago, I was pleasantly surprised by the trams. Clean, punctual and a pleasure to use. A model for other cities to take note of. :)

As someone from Nottingham who takes the Toton lane tram from university boulevard to Old Market Square it feels weird watching this. Also very much fitting this was released today considering the castle also has finally opened today.

Thank you for showcasing our wonderful city Geoff. If you’d have advertised you were coming I bet you’d have got others to join you. Hope you come again soon

Great to see progression of the system to include the University, when i lived around there it was a mixture of walking, buses and taxis.

Thinking of Mick Hucknall seeing the Hucknall signs? You're not alone! Something got me started...

Awesome to see my home city's tram network on the channel!

How did I miss this Geoff, love it. I’m from Notts but have shockingly never used the tram, but had been considering doing this…

As someone who lives in nottingham and can hear the trams from my room this is cool to see !

Great to see Geoff touring my home city! The tram system is a great innovation.

going there for uni in september and planning on doing the exact same thing

I must of missed this when it was first uploaded, it's werid seeing you around my home town but at the same time I'm loving seeing you go around somewhere I'm so familiar with! Also even though I'm from Nottingham I didnt know what NET stood for until now, but like you said we just call it the tram! Great video as always Geoff. 👍

Geoff, every video you do, you seriously blow me away, excellent.

Love the perfection of the videos you produce Geoff! You will never be better then any other train geek. Keep up the great work!

My local stop is David Lane, I got on there every week day for 4 years to get to school! I wish I'd happened to be there when you were as I probably wouldn't have believed you were at my local tram stop!

Great video Geoff, I first rode the network in 2015 but my favourites are the night videos from november 2017 and Christmas 2019, very atmospheric.

Yes Geoff! I love Nottingham trams. There was only the one line when I lived there but I popped in last year to do exactly what you just did. Such a great tram system.

Rode the then-brand new tram once in the first week it opened back in 2004, just before we moved from Nottingham to Seattle. I remember it primarily for all the streets being dug up and the pain of trying to get around by car as a result -- but it it was lovely to see our old neighborhoods. Thank you for the ride, Geoff!

Hello, Geoff! Always good to see a new video from your channel.

"Just follow the tram tracks in the road" - that's the exact strategy I use to get from Manchester Piccadilly to Manchester Victoria without losing my bearings!

Nottingham..yes my home town where I train spotted as a kid [Edit] you actually went to Beeston, best place in England 👍

I’ve used the trams in Notts for the first time this weekend. Super easy and great to use. Watching this made me dizzy though! 😂

I love Jono's stern "tram" at the end

Fun to see you around here! I've wanted to do this myself for ages!

Geoff - So glad you did this video. Being my local area I did all the stops a few years ago when the extensions to Toton and Clifton opened. I didn't get out at every stop though. Only one minor, well major issue. Basford is pronounced Base Ford! My parents used to live there and I have relatives who still do ;) Thanks, keep up the great work.

Loved this video! There's something so exciting about Tram Bashing!

If I am not mistaken, those Bombardier trams are the same as we have on the Portland (Oregon) Streetcar. That sure looked like a lot of fun! Thanks Jono and Geoff!!

I have never been to Nottingham but when you did that geoff I know that it is lovely 😍

That tram system is well integrated into the rest of Nottingham's transportation infrastructure. You had use almost a full day to tick all the stops but I guess alternating between riding trams/walking to stops was the best way to ensure you'd hit all 50. Good video.

Omg this is insane I live in Beeston, and thats where you visited!

Thank you for the video Geoff. I always love your System Races or visting every stop. Your videos made me trying to break the time record on the berlin U Bahn. By the way the trams are really nice lookin ones.

Whoop !!! LOVE nottingham and miss it so much and so glad you're showing it. I still need to do the phase 2 phase

Next do the Cambridge busway the tram that never was, or the Bus Tram depending on how you look at it, honestly keep up the good work man, love watching these vids

These trams have always been a key part of my life! (You started at my local stop!!)

Toton lane at Bardill roundabout … I lived just down the Stapleford lane as they started phase two (building Toton Terminus) and never saw it operational as I’d moved to New Zealand by then … thanks for this, Geoff … trip down memory ‘tram-lane’!

Trams of Nottingham are amazing.

Loved it. I would like to see a longer version of that.

Cheers Geoff, really enjoyed this one. Last time I was in Nottingham the trams only had one phase!

Geoff this is another great video - thank you!

Ahhh! Can't believe you came to Nottingham! I'd have tried to find you and say hi! Such a fan! Hope you had fun on the trams 😎🚊🚋

Manchester is waiting for you Geoff

It’s great to see a tram video as a tram lover myself

Excellent video Geoff!

I’m amazed !! I live Bulwell and work at Nottingham station thank you for showing it off !!

Honestly when I move for uni I’m going to miss the tram so very much! The tram is a lovely mode of transport that I utilise to get to and from work and college. I also intentionally sit in the front to watch the driver drive! Lots of fun!

Geoff, where did you get your t-shirt from? My son would love one, the trams in Nottingham are his favourite thing! (He thought this video was great).

fully was not expecting this but am here for it

I was literally hoping for more and now its happened!

It's so weird seeing Geoff doing a video of my local area! I can just see my flat as well 😅

I really hope you visit Sheffield at some point, we have Tram Trains!

Brings me back for when I lived in Nottingham. I remember the opening, the official day before their was a band from the high school playing and selected guests were invited to travel. The next day it was awesome riding in the tram. Then again I was still a kid, lol :)

Thank goodness you had a nice sunny day for this ‘expedition’ - it would be no fun at all in heavy rain or wintry conditions 😉😎👍.

Hope you enjoyed your visit to our fair city.

I clicked on this video so quickly! I can't wait till you do Edinburgh, Manchester and Sheffield trams..

Finally a Nottingham video, I’m so excited 😅

That was a great video. Those trams are really really amazing.

Should do all the stops on the Edinburgh Trams...it'll take you about 25mins but you can tick them off👌🏻🤣

Great video Geoff. Love to see you do Blackpool trams 🚋

You don't meet in Old Market Square you meet at the Left Lion in Old Market Square!

I still find it weird that there's a tram stop and a massive P&R opposite the secondary school [George Spencer] I went to... Toton Lane & Bardills Island certainly has changed a huge amount! Nostalgic feeling from 20 years of living in Toton & spending time in Beeston and Nottingham. Thank you! :)

I love the market Square at different seasons as they pack fill it with either a Christmas fair, summer fair etc. I remember once they had a massive wheel there too!

Spot on and I use the tram every day from Slab Square to Wilford Lane, excellent.

Nice to see the old London Midland moquette on your train to Hucknall from Nottingham (some of the Class 170s been cascaded from the West Midlands to work on the East Midlands), Nice video riding the trams around Nottingham.

Geoff, we have a thing in Nottingham, the tram beer trail. Start at Hucknall and get off at every stop between Hucknall and market Square and have a half at the nearest pub to each stop.

Love geoffs dedication

Welcom to good old Nottingham. I live not to far from Toton tram stop. Can’t believe I missed you. Xxxx

Thanks for showing me the bear foot walker in slab square

I look forward to you visiting Sheffield's tram system Geoff!

What a fun video! Thanks as always! And now I am - as I have been for quite a while - considering doing the same thing in my city. Maybe not actually setting foot on every single stop, though, as that would probably take far too long. But riding all lines in a day should be quite doable 🤔😃

Very good Geoff.

I loved the trams as a student so easy and pretty cheap. I miss Nottingham, great video

we need one of these with the manchester metrolink geoff...

Just Excellent.

What What What. You were in my city. Damn man. Also the tram is really useful. I really want another line to open up. Nottingham's got some great public transport already but I'd like to see if expand even more, mostly because I live in the countryside and the bus into the city is once every 30 minutes for most of the day then once an hour after 7pm. When I get into Nottingham, I generally grab the tram from Slab Square if I'm going to Warhammer World, or from the Theatre if I'm going to the climbing centre, where I'll get off at Beaconsfield Street. A proper day out, considering I normally spend a good 4-5 hours in the city plus the 50 mins it takes to get there and another 50 minutes back. I've never done all the stops though, never had the need to. Any case, awesome little feature and don't worry about videos going over 10 minutes, no need to rush through things if they take a bit longer than average, we'll still watch.

I’ve been on these trams before & enjoyed the video. I don’t live in Nottingham but my auntie lives there so I go there a lot

There is something really unsettling watching Geoff's videos for years to then watch him walk past my house in this video

I like that you're already making commentary to the video all throughout it without needing a director's cut.

And another city I have to check on a next vacation in the UK... Looks great and trams are always a good excuse to hang around in a city for a few days.

Beautiful.

i love trams i need to visit nottingham in the future ans see for myself

Wow every tram stop in the city of Nottingham.

An excellently-designed system. I especially like the winding loop in the centre section.

As a person who lives and works in Nottingham. I love to see people so enthusiastic about things we locals take for granted. Your enthusiasm is great. And a great video too. Forget how big the network is! By the way it's pronounced "B.a.s.e.f.o.r.d" not Bass 😂. P.s. I work for the major bus company within Nottingham, would be great if you could do a video about our buses. Did you know in Nottingham we have the highest bus use per head of population outside of London. "We love our buses" 👍

Great video Geoff. I wish Liverpool had trams
