abstract:Tramway track is used on tramways or light rail operations. Grooved rails (or girder rails) are often used in order to make street running feasible.
Ian Yearsley, from the National Tramway Museum, said the cost of renewing the track in the 1930s and the worry that there would not be enough passengers due to the depression, had led to the closure of the former tram system on 3 August 1946.
