  Tramway Society  

The 1936 No.7 on the promenade
at Rhos-on-Sea
(a b/w photo hand coloured by Llandudno Enthusiasts)

A 3'6" gauge electric tramway operated between these two North Wales seaside resorts
via Rhos-on-Sea from October 1907 until March 1956


The aims of the Society are:-
a) to record the history of the tramway
b) to rebuild a replica tram for public display during 2007 (centenary of the opening of the tramway) and to take it to public events in subsequent years
(with the longer-term aim of possibly operating a similar tram on a demonstration line somewhere in the locality)

Llandudno Enthusiasts also have a forum on the
Tramway Centenary  -  click here to go direct to it



In order to raise further funds 'traditional style' adverts will be displayed on the tram,
(similar to those shown above advertising 'Catlin Follies' on both the 'old' No.7 and the 'new' No.7 )
for any firm who is prepared to give a "generous" donation
but hurry spaces are going fast !

With plans to have our Replica Tram No.7 on public display on further occasions throughout 2009,
this could be an unique opportunity to promote your firm both locally and nationally

Please contact the society chairman if you are interested


Would your firm like to Sponsor part of the cost of rebuilding one of our double-deck open-top trams ?


=====>   Are you interested - can YOU  help ?   <=====
The Society is looking for further committee members
also those willing to help out with the various events in 2009
If you are interested, please contact the chairman or alternatively any other committee member

There is a limit to how much further the Society can acheive without a lot of active help from members and outside bodies
