10:20Now PlayingIn the midst of a Derbyshire limestone quarry once owned and operated by the great rail engineer George Stephenson, a once familiar feature of British industrial cities has been brought back to life. Before the age of the motor car the electric tram car ruled the road and now does so again at Crich.
Neil Cossons pays a visit to the National Tramway Museum at Crich, to take a brief look back at the history of tramways in Britain, with Bob Hall of the Tramway Museum Society.
Clip taken from Industrial Grand Tour, originally broadcast on BBC Two, 24 August, 1972.
