Down Memory Lane - 4                                                                                 Photo:  Richard Prendergast During week commencing 18th June 2012 work took place to renew the surface of the road along Mostyn Broadway outside the swimming pool After the top surface was scraped away the former tramtracks from over 50 years ago were exposed - what a pity they wern't restored rather than being covered up again !

Down Memory Lane - 3                                                                                 Photos:  David Clegg To mark 40 years after the closure of the tramway the 2'0" gauge Replica Tram No 6 from the Seaton Tramway visited Llandudno for the annual Transport Festival in 1996 A considerable length of temporary track was laid along the former trackbed across Bodafon Fields but sadly authority could not be obtained to operate it for visitors

Down Memory Lane - 2 After spending several years in an Irish field the body of former Lisbon 305 (still sporting the number 25 in Llandudno and Colwyn Bay colours as displayed well over a decade ago on Llandudno's Bodafon Fields - at the Transport Festival in 2000) has now found further use as "The Tram Cafe" in Dublin (This tram was originally purchased by the Ll&CBTSoc for its bogies - but the body was subsequently sold for further use)

Down Memory Lane - 1                                                                                     Photo:  (c) D Chaplin By far the least attractive tram in the fleet works car "23A" stands outside the depot at Rhos on Sea awaiting her next call to duty Yes, it always had a small "A" after the arrival of the ex-Darwen DD 23 ! Note the stairway to nowhere (at one time to a public upper deck in her former life before arriving in North Wales to replace the original works car) (What would "Health and Safety" think of working off the top deck these days ?)
