Tramlink Stops and Routes (London, UK)
This collection contains all the tram stops belonging to the Tramlink system that runs through part of South London in the UK.
Version info
Version: 6
This collection was last updated on 26 October 2006
(Please see my replies to this post for details.)
Collection details
All the stops are now covered by high resoluton images and there are plenty of trams to been seen at various stations, with an especially nice view of a tram waiting at Area stop.
Many trams and trolleybuses ran in London until the 1950's, when the last ones were removed to make way for cars and buses, but we realised recently that it might be a good idea to bring some back.
This tram system opened in 2000 and, so far, it's the only one in London - but there are plans for more.
The collection also includes the three routes as Google Earth Paths, shown in the colour of each route. To view a fly-through of a route, select it and click on the 'play button'.
The description bubble of each station placemark includes links to:
A location area transport map (where available)
A link to the Tramlink website

Hello,
I've updated this collection to include the new stop at the Centrale shoppig centre called, unsurprisingly, Centrale!
By all accounts, this stop could have been in operation a lot sooner but contractural problems between various parties (incuding TfL, the council and the shopping centre owners) got in the way.
(I also re-ordered them all alphabetically.)
