Bournemouth Corporation Tramways presents a comprehensive history of the Bournemouth tramway system, tracing its origins from the early aspirations for tramways, through the legal and engineering challenges of construction and concluding with its eventual abandonment and replacement by trolleybuses.

 


David R.H. Bowler’s narrative follows the system’s development, operational changes, technological adaptations, and the social and economic forces that shaped its existence.  His appendices provide detailed technical and operational reference material, which include fleet information, infrastructure, power supply, fares, timetables, legislation, and statistical data. Together, the chapters and supporting material offer both a chronological account and a technical record of the undertaking, serving as a thorough resource for researchers, historians, and transport enthusiasts.
