Biografie

London Tramways Company Limited of 80 Blackfriars Road opened its first route in 1870 and continued expanding until it reached its full 24 miles by 1892 to become the largest of the southern tramway systems. It laid lines on the major routes from the Thames road bridges to Tooting, Streatham, New Cross and Greenwich, operating 399 horse cars, as well as 40 cable tramcars on the short cable operated section from Kennington Gate to Streatham. Since the whole system was inside the council boundary, it was all acquired by the LCC in 1899 which then made plans for electricification.
