Sheffield Trams Ref: OV490
Total Price:£15.95
Quantity:
Sheffield was the last city in England to operate trams. Renowed for its cheap fares. frequent services, high maintenance standards and steeply graded routes, the system continued to expand until 1935. Over 300 new four-wheel double-deckers were built between 1928 and 1952 including the famous "Roberts" cars. Ironically as the last of these was being delivered the city implemented its policy of tramway abandonment, the final route closing on 8th.October 1960. Thirt years later modern tramways returned to the streets of Sheffield!
This video recaptures the glory days with an evocative selection of films, many in colour, depicting all types of cars before, during & after the war. Detailed route coverage starts with ECCLESALL-MIDDLEWOOD (abandones 1954), then the 'hilly' lines WALKLEY-INTAKE (1956) and CROOKES-HANDSWORTH (1957); the reserved track along PRINCE OF WALES ROAD (1958), the industrial canyons of BRIGHTSIDE (1958/9), the semi-rural ABBEY LANE (1959), the single track sections en-route to WADSLEY BRIDGE (1959) and finally the town trunk routes MEADOWHEAD-SHEFFIELD LANE TOP and BEAUCHIEF-VULCAN ROAD (1960).
SPECIAL FEATURES - football cars for Wednesday and United; snow scenes; a simulated gas attack; the short-lived unpopular green livery; a second-hand London tram; an ex-Bradford car; enthusiast specials; period buses & cars; and FINAL DAY ACTIVITY. In conclusion, the trams that "escaped" and the horse car that returned.

Seaton Tramway Ref: OV950D
Price:£15.95
Quantity:
The Seaton Tramway must be one of the most unusual tram lines in the country. It keeps moving! The story starts in an electrical factory in Barnet, North London, where a Mr. Claude Lane was making electric vehicles, like milk floats.
He built a very large model tram there and soon took it around to fairs and amusement parks. With a second tram he took them and the track etc. to Rhyl in North Wales and to Hastings during summer seasons. They proved to be very popular and a permanent tramway was set up at Eastbourne, Sussex, This opened in 1954 and extended in 1955-8.
Most of the tramcars now in use were built there. The next move was to its present home - at Seaton. The Seaton branch railway line was to close and it would make a very attractive Tramway with its views across the River Axe - the natural history background -and leading to two lovely villages at Colyford and Colyton.
There the Tramway has operated for over 20 years. This video recording starts with scenes at Hastings then moves onto the Eastbourne times.
Through films provided by Ken Thorpe the story of the construction and developments of the tramway is told, the track building - bridge repairing - and all the other slogging jobs that volunteers and staff had to perform. Their reward was when the first Battery powered runs took place. Later the overhead wires went up and an extension to Colyton opened.
