Britain's What's On Event Guide
The Selsey Tramway - Joe Whicher
Joe says:
Having harboured an interest in railways throughout my life it has always been the smaller
concerns, whether standard or narrow gauge, that have intrigued me the most. When
information on a minor railway is available it often reveals unusual working practices, as well
as it being operated with an enormous variety of equipment, much of which is second hand
and in some cases modified to work on the particular line.
Upon coming to live in Chichester in 2006, with an interest in both Industrial Archaeology and Railways, the fascination of exploring the route and history of the lost Tramway between Chichester and Selsey inspired me to do a little research.
So after gathering and illustrating my findings here is what I discovered.
