Trolley mast for Chester No. 4

HOOTON Park Trust, which is working on the restoration of Chester’s last surviving electric tram car, is looking for technical information about the vehicle’s trolley mast.

The mast for 1903-built

No. 4 was found during a search of Merseyside Tramway Preservation Society’s stores, but a comparison with an advertisement in which it features, suggests that it may be missing a central part.

The frame of the tram is currently being reassembled.
