In 1896 the Council was empowered to apply to the Railway Commissioners for an Order authorizing the construction of a light railway. For practical purposes there was no distinction between a light railway and a tramway, except that at that time tramways were horse-drawn. With the introduction of electric traction that distinction very soon disappeared. The MCC obtained a number of Light Railway Orders after the passing of the Act, but it did not work the railways, leasing them to the Metropolitan Electric Tramways.
With the establishment of the London Passenger Transport Board in 1930, all the Council's light railways and tramways were transferred to the Board. They were replaced with trolley buses and buses operated by the London Transport Executive.
