Beschreibung
The earliest tramcars were horse-drawn and originated during the Victorian era, a large portion of them eventually being replaced with electric vehicles (which themselves were phased out or replaced by trolleybuses). A number of these tramcars have been restored and preserved and continue to be run by museums all around the world, with a significant number based in Britain. Several tramcar bodies were sold to farmers and other individuals when the systems they were running on closed down. These bodies were used for a variety of purposes - chicken houses, lambing pens and houses or holiday homes. Many have since been recovered and restored and often returned to their original condition and are running once again at heritage sites. Royston Morris' vibrant images feature a fascinating selection of tramcars that have been preserved (in one form or another) and can be seen across the country.
