• Did you know the Central Tramway was the only steam powered cliff railway in the country when it was first constructed?

• Did you know the motor used to power the movement of the carriages is smaller than the average motor in a small family car?

There's lots of fun and fascinating facts to learn about this historic cliff railway for young and old alike.

 

The Central Tramway Company is committed to sharing our history with our local community as it is such an important part of the wider story of Scarborough.

 

Pre-arranged school visits are encouraged and welcome at the Tramway, as well as talks and tours for local interest groups. In recent years we've welcomed groups from local historical, special interest and scouting societies.

​

As part of our package for school visits we have curriculum based resources to assist with learning about the Tramway both on a visit as well as in the classroom. As part of our commitment to helping local schools at this difficult time we're making this resource pack free to download below.
