| THE SALTBURN CLIFF TRAMWAY |
| "The
Saltburn tramway as it is known replaced a vertical lift
which was closed on safety grounds in 1883. The railway
opened a year later and provided transport between the
pier and the town. The railway is water balanced and from
1924 the water pump was electrically operated. The first
major maintenance was carried out in 1998 with the main
winding wheel being replaced and a new braking system
installed." The following illustrate the tramway in August 2001. |
