Eastbourne looking back: Electric tramway in the 50s-60s

The Eastbourne Electric Tramway ran for 2/3-mile between Princes Park and the Crumbles.

It was built and operated by Claude Lane, opening in 1954 and running until 1969 when the whole operation was moved to Seaton in Devon. Find out more about the tram here.
