Two of the trams can be found on the lower section and two on the upper, and the same trams have run the same section for over 120 years. It runs on 3 \u20186\u201d gauge and is a cable tramway \u2013 the only remaining tramway of this type in the UK. This photo shows 4 as it arrives back at the Victoria Station terminus on the outskirts of Llandudno Town Centre on 1st May 2016.
