Of course. Presumably from Nunnery as there are usually one or two on the depot.
There are only 2 diagrams, covering a 30 minute frequency. Started at Fitzalan Sq. 20 minutes between Outbound to Rotherham leaving 399201 and Inbound arriving 399202.
Then tram down to Sheff Midland (5 minutes) and then Lincoln train, passing Nunnery depot where 399203/4/5/6/7 were all visible (Note they werent all visible from the tram line passing behond the depot)

Class 399 would probably also be an answer to a question along the lines of 'the most under utilised class'. In theory they can also work 'normal' tram diagrams, but in a week or so I didn't see that once, with all 5 not out being on the depot every time I passed it. Suggests they are only used as a last resort?

Nope. I reckon that would be impossible to do?

Fair shout, I wonder if its ever been done?

The one parked up at Midland Road would be a challenge for a start!
