Vintage Trams at Beamish
Two old double decker trams taking visitors around the museum site. The Beamish Tramway route is 1½ miles long. It opened in 1973 to re-create the experience and atmosphere of a tramway operation of an earlier generation, whilst providing a means of transport for visitors to get around the site.
Sheffield 264 was built by the United Electric Car Company of Preston for Sheffield Corporation Tramways to whom it was delivered in 1907.
Blackpool 31 was built in 1901 at the Midland Railway Carriage and Wagon Company for Blackpool Tramway, originally as a four-wheel double-decker open topper. It was placed on long-term loan at the Beamish Museum in July 1984 and has been restored to its 1920s condition (open top, open platform double-decker).
