Hong Kong Tramways
This tram system on Hong Kong island opened as the Hongkong Tramway Electric Company on
30 July 1904. The system is laid
to a gauge of 1067 mm and
has a track length of some 30 kilometres.
Hong Kong Tramways
Originally the tramcars were shipped from England, but are now built locally. The wheel turned a complete
circle in 1993 when two locally built trams were exported to
the Birkenhead Tramway, England.
KCRC Light Rail Transport
The Kowloon - Canton Railway Corporation runs a comprehensive Light Rail network in
the western part of the New Territories, Hong Kong.
The Peak Tram
The Peak Tram on Hong Kong Island - actually a funicular railway - has been hauling
people up to Victoria Peak since 1888
Seaton Tramway
The Seaton Tramway
runs from the seaside town of Seaton, Devon, England, to Colyton,
via Colyford. I always enjoy sitting 'on top', and trundling along the river
valley on a warm summer afternoon....
