At this distance, one can only congratulate David for his efforts to represent the school at this local event. I (and probably others)would very much appreciate some explanation of the context of the event in which he so obviously pulled out the stops.

Re: Local History Day

Looking at the K&D History Society web pages there are a couple of nice pictures of trams on North Street/Skipton Road. What routes did Keighley trams cover, when were they introduced and when discontinued? Anybody know?

Re: Local History Day

I think the electric trams ran from October 1904 to December 1924, when they were replaced by tracklesses.
They ran between Utley, Ingrow and Stockbridge.
