Club Background

History of Our Club

The Hastings Tramway Club (H.T.C.) was formed in 1992 to create an interest in the history of trams which formed a major part of the transport scene in the last century.

Our Objective

The club's main objective is to bring the trams back to the streets of Hastings, all-be-it modern ones. We also aim to restore two of the former Hastings Tramcars nos. 48 and 56 to their former glory and to run a miniature tramway somewhere in or near Hastings. In doing so, we aim to promote the idea of a modern tramway system in Hastings and increase knowledge of the 20^th Century Hastings Tramways.
