A vintage tram museum is looking to raise £150,000 so it can convert one of its vehicles in order for wheelchair users to ride in it. Crich Tramway Village, in Derbyshire, said most of its historic trams dated back to an age before wheelchair use was common. Bosses said the attraction already had a small "access tram", but they wanted a larger vehicle with a greater capacity. They have identified a tram, built in Blackpool in the 1980s, for the job and hope to retire its predecessor.
