Funnily enough, I have a ticket for the very last tram that ran - and I was on it. I can remember the trams in the Old Kent road very well, and having to be careful on my bike not to go down the holes where the rails were inlaid into the cobbles. Err - I mean road!
Nice One Dabhand
When i worked in Barking in the builders merchants trade i had an old glass cutter that use to work inour branch in comercial road and use to come to Barking to collect the stock on a Horse and cart. He also had {until he died} an old tram ticket in his wallet and took great delight in pulling it out to show to any ticket inspector.
I can remember the old trolley buses in our area and in some respects wish that we could still have that mode of transport today
