The Great Orme Tramway

Great Orme Tramway, near Halfway

Some photos taken around Conwy and Llandudno in early July, not all of trains (there are some of castles and bunnies). This is the Great Orme Tramway which runs out of Llandudno.

The line has always been marketed as one of the “Great Little Trains of Wales”, but unlike the other lines, it’s not a steam railway, but a rope-worked tramway using the same principles as a funicular, something unique in Britain. This is the street-running lower section just below Halfway station.
