Description
A webring that linked 122 hobbyist sites about tram spotting, and the member sites that could still be recovered.
Provenance
Rebuilt from a server image provided by the site’s former administrator. The tape had stretched near its start; the first blocks were repaired by hand from the sampled signal. The image matches a checksum published by the original distributor.
