I'm all for trams. Preston have talked about bringing them back too, but here apparently the idea has been scrapped because the area has too many hills.
Was this not noticed years ago?
What do people think? Goodbye to a bad idea, or another good plan wrecked by bad planning?
Makes you wonder doesn’t it. I think their where trams in Accrington from sometime around 1886 until a little after the First World War. Didn’t seem to be a problem then?
