    i have an idea for a short route, its roughly 3.5 miles and it runs between redruth and camborne, it has single deck and double deck electric trams as well as running freight from east pool mine, the only downside is that there is not much documentation of it due to it having been closed in the 30's but the last of the track and power line hangers were removed in the 60s i have included a link to the tramways Wikipedia page in case anyone would like to look at it and the history behind it, hopefully dovetail consider this route or at least give a idea of why it would be hard/impractical/impossible. living so close to the route that it would have taken i would be able to supply media of where the route went if required.

    That seems like a very cool idea! However, don't you think it is a bit short? Unless the train is also a bit slow. Keep it up! :D

    with it being an electric tram from 1902 im guessing it wouldn't be that fast but since i was not alive in 1902-1934 i wouldn't know what there top speed was
