We have another visit to the Seaton Tramway, it was many years ago since our last visit, plus it has been extended. Good day out.

How wonderful. I never knew this tramway existed until I found your channel just now. The tram at 1:25 reminded me a lot of the beautiful Hill of Howth in Dublin, Ireland which sadly, no longer exists. My dad took me for a ride on it just before it closed forever in May 1959. I was 6 years old and I've never forgotten that wonderful day sitting on the open top deck and utterly thrilled. It was a huge mistake to close the line. Thank you for a wonderful trip down memory lane. I've subscribed to your channel.

Hi. Many thanks for watching and subscribing to my channel. I'm sure you will find many more videos to your liking, plus bringing back old memories of times past. We have filmed trolley bus museums, steam pumping stations, Preserved standard gauge/ Narrow gauge and of course my favourite Miniature railways. The guys work so hard on the Seaton tram way to make sure all the visitors enjoy their day. Best wishes Chris and Rosie.

Yes it is a lovely ride, sunny for the outward trip but looked like rain for the return so went below. Many thanks for your nice comments. Best wish to Di. Chris and Rosie.

Nice video. I was driving car 15 on the day of your visit, parked up in the "stub end" at Colyton at the start of your film. The arm leading up to the wire is known as "the trolley". The "reverser" at Colyton is a useful and interesting piece of kit. Best wishes.

Many thanks Ian. Glad you enjoyed my video. Thanks also for the info on the wire reverser. You guys do a great job providing a lovely attraction for the holiday makers, although not many about on our visit, to cold. Keep up the good work. Regards Chris
