Our Vision for the future For more than 50 years the Tramway Museum Society, from acquiring disused quarry premises at Crich for storing and operating tramcars, has grown to a very prestigious Nationally recognised Museum with a Designated Collection and which attracts around 100, 000 visitors each year. This has been achieved in many respects with a clear documented vision with regard to both the tramcar collection and the development of the Museum environment. The total commitment and passion to preserve and demonstrate function and form of tramcars by a core of volunteers has resulted in the creation of a street scene based visitor attraction. With this in mind the following vision has been defined: “To be the best heritage tramway experience in the world.” This vision will not be achieved without commitment and planning, significant time, money, and human endeavour being invested.

PDF-200-1 3 The Stage Waggon Getting Around Before The 1700's Up until the latter part of the 1500's the only reliable form of passenger transport was the horse; although rudimentary carts and waggons existed they were not generally used as public transport. It was not until towards the close of the century that the waggon became used as a public conveyance and even then only on rare occasions.

Phil Thoms’ detailed interest in the subject is obvious and the collection of photographs amassed from the surviving Massey archive, and from a wide variety of other sources, provides a wonderful record of the output and the many once well-known customers, with evocative colour illustrations of many of them.

  • The Works Brass Band – a Historical Directory of the Industrial and Corporate Patronage and Sponsorship of Brass Bands
    The works brass band – a historical directory of the industrial and corporate patronage and sponsorship of brass bands Gavin Holman, January 2020 Preston Corporation Tramways Band, c. 1910 From the earliest days of brass bands in the British Isles, they have been supported at various times and to differing extents by businesses and their owners. In some cases this support has been purely philanthropic, but there was usually a quid pro quo involved where the sponsor received benefits – e.g. advertising, income from band engagements, entertainment for business events, a “worthwhile” pastime for their employees, corporate public relations and brand awareness - who would have heard of John Foster’s Mills outside of the Bradford area if it wasn’t for the Black Dyke Band? One major sponsor and supporter of brass bands, particularly in the second half of the 19th century, was the British Army, through the Volunteer movement, with upwards of 500 bands being associated with the Volunteers at some time – a more accurate estimate of these numbers awaits some further analysis. However, I exclude these bands from this paper, to concentrate on the commercial bodies that supported brass bands. I am also excluding social, civic, religious, educational and political organisations’ sponsorship or support. In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a band, composed of workers from a particular company or industry was supported by the business or not. The “workmen’s band” was often a separate entity, supported by a local trade union or other organisation. For the purposes of this review I will be including them unless there is specific reference to a trade union or other social organisation.
