I don't know if I've heard of a three car tram before but I don't see why not I guess. It'd make sense.
Isn't the capacity less of trams than trains under BR where the peak time service was:
4 car 304s every 20 minutes running stopping services between Altrincham and Manchester
101s (mainly 4 car) every 20 minutes running Chester-Altrincham-Manchester calling at only Sale between Altrincham and Manchester.

The 101s were also much quicker between Altrincham and Manchester than trams.
