To celebrate tram 178 completing 100,000 circuits of Christchurch city, these men had the task of pulling the tram down Worcester street (right by the Arts Centre).

Getting ready to pull

And they are on their way! I was really surprised at how much traction they had once they got going, the tram practically flew by me.

I’m not sure how close I got, but a woman next to me put her hand out as I was leaning in to get the photo! I think she may have been a little worried!
