Riverside Loop

The Seaton Tramway is a 2ft 9in (838 mm) narrow gauge electric tramway which operates over part of the route of the former London & South Western Railway branch line to Seaton, Devon. The line was converted between 1969 and 1971 by Claude Lane, who had bought the line from British Rail and had successfully operated trams in Eastbourne as a visitor attraction.

 

The 3-mile (4.8 km) route runs through East Devon's Coly and Axe Valleys, between the coastal resort of Seaton, the small village of Colyford and the ancient town of Colyton.

 

Thirteen tram cars are part of the visitor attraction which sees about 80,000 visitors per year. The tram cars are half-scale (1:2) replicas of classic British tram cars from various cities.
