the new tram depot opens at old trafford in next 2 years,so as well as empty stock,there will be trams running to chorlton and media city,smedley viaduct is also being re ballasted[near queens road tram depot]to allow for oldham/rochdale trams to run,they will be heading through g-mex to the depot as well as the trams from droylsden,maybe this is whats happening?as far as mayfield being pulled down-ive read that national express wanted to use the site as a bus coach rail interchange,whether this will happen tho is another story,think its an ugly building,but is very close to piccadilly and cant understand why it isnt used to relieve congestion at piccadilly,good news tho that the northern hub will link all manchester termini with the ordsall chord allowing transpennine trains to go from victoria and piccadilly to the airport liverpool etc.
