679 was moved from Rigby Road depot to the LTT's Brinwell Road premises on the morning of Saturday 25th April. 679 was acquired by the LTT in October 2008 for restoration back to a streamlined English Electric Railcoach.New pointed end cab underframes will be fitted and a steel framed streamlined end (similar to those fitted to refurbished Balloon cars). Original style glazing, half-drop windows and swingover seats will also be fitted as part of the restoration. Work will be completed in time for "279" to return to the tramway in 2010 for the 125th anniversary year.
