THE FRAMLEY TRAM STORY - 1

The Framley Tram was a regular sight on the streets of Framley from the late Victorian era right up until it was dismantled some time afterwards. It was the last fluff-powered tram in service in Great Britain, and the only one with a licence to run between Framley and Clinton and over pedestrians.

The picture above shows passengers during the Great Strike of 1926 using the tram to not get to work. The gentleman on the right is forcing the tram to stop in the normal way by grabbing it as it passes and holding it very tightly.
