We are pleased to be able to offer to you a quality mug featuring one of the trams that ran in Pontefract.
In 1906, Normanton; Castleford and Pontefract constructed a diesel-powered tram system to allow faster transportation between the towns. Passengers would get onboard at the Market Place station, move into Castleford via High Street and from its market place to Pontefract’s within some 50 minutes. The tram service was not especially popular, and the much faster omnibus quickly superseded it, with the service closing in 1927 and its tracks dug up
This quality Mug makes a great souvenir to remember your visit to Pontefract. This is also a perfect gift for local residents still living in the area, or for those have now moved away.
