Tram accidents appear to come in threes.

A third Christchurch tram had a mishap today, when it and a bus collided on the corner of Cathedral Square and Worcester Street.

No-one was hurt in the incident which police at the scene described as "minor.''

The passengers remained on the tram and it continued on its journey after causing delays to the next tram behind.

The crash follows a horror week on the tracks for the Christchurch tourist attraction.

On Tuesday a tram and a glass door collided in the Cathedral Junction shopping precinct.

On Wednesday a car and a tram collided. No-one was hurt in either incident.
