The directory of British tramwaysVol. 1: Southern England

As trams and light transit systems make a comeback in many British cities, this volume, the first of three, looks at the tramways and light railways that have operated in Britain's towns and cities.

From the 1880s to the 1950s, trams were a common sight in many British towns.

From Cornwall's Camborne & Redruth Tramway to the up-to-the-minute rapid transit system in Croydon, this will prove to be the definitive history of the tram networks of Britain.

Volume One covers southern England and Greater London, with tramway systems as far apart as Penzance and Ipswich.
