Metrolink trams reach Milnrow during testing
Trams reached Milnrow for the first time on Saturday as Metrolink bosses continue test the line.
Tracks are in place and overhead lines have been electrified on the route which will see trams go through Milnrow, Shaw and Derker in Oldham.
Metrolink bosses originally planned a launch in this autumn, but now believe it could be pushed into 2013.
