Last time I went to the Lickeys it was on a tram!
I believe that the trams left from the same spot, it was a great tram ride!!Last time I went to the Lickeys it was on a tram!
Presume the cable system was similar to San Francisco's cable cars where the driver is called the brake man.https://birminghamhistory.co.uk/forum/index.php?threads/cable-tramway-inn-hockley.26584/
This small thread has something about the Cable Inn and the same photo, which confirms Hockley.
The tramcar shown was one of those operated by a cable, the channel for which clearly shows in the centre of the two running rails. I am sure Peter Walker wrote about this system so anyone interested might look at the Forum archives written by him.
