Where is clear, but what happened at Mossley and when? It certainly attracted a good crowd who look to be Edwardian period. Can you help us out?

This photo was taken on 20th October 1911. The strange wheels, axles and springs are the remains of a tramcar. On that morning about 5.30am the tramcar, packed with early-morning workers, was coming down a steep hill above the station when it got out of control, left its rails and plunged into the railway cutting. Five people in the tram were killed.
