Great Orme Tramway A descending tram begins the steep descent of Old Road. The "tram" is actually a funicular railway hauled by a cable concealed in the central slot in the roadway at this point.

Not much has changed in 30 years! 1974 to 2004 - a comparison with 132984. Car no 4 has had a 'makeover' and a Peugeot has replaced the Ford Anglia, all else seems pretty much the same.

100 mGreat Orme Tramway A descending car threads its way down Old Road. Not surprisingly normal motor traffic is prohibited on this road! The promenade and Colwyn Bay can be seen in the distance. The "tram" is actually a funicular railway hauled by a cable concealed in the central slot in the roadway at this point. A funicular railway has two vehicles connected and counterbalance on a length of cable so that one descends as the other ascends. The Great Orme Tramway is in two sections, hence there is a total of four vehicles. Note that this car carries the number 5!
