The Hartlepools Steam Tramways operated a tramway service in Hartlepool between 1884 and 1891.[1]
History
The Hartlepool Tramways Order of 1883 authorised the Hartlepools Steam Tramways Company Ltd to construct the tramway which was built to a gauge of 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm).
Services started on 2 August 1884 from Northgate, Hartlepool, via Millbank Crescent, Cleveland Road and Clarence Road, terminating in Church Street, West Hartlepool.
The rolling stock was provided by the Falcon Works, with a total fleet of 6 locomotives.
Closure
The tramway failed financially, and it closed in 1891. It was resurrected as Hartlepool Electric Tramways in 1896.
