              A tramway is a system of public transportation that uses electric-powered trams, also known as a streetcar or trolley, running along rails incorporated into city streets or separate tracks. The service can be for transporting passengers within a city or between towns. The term tramway can also refer to the track itself.

                An abbreviation of “Outram way,” after Benjamin Outram of Derbyshire, who was the first to place his sleepers end to end the whole length of the rails, instead of crosswise, as on our railways. Long before this, however, the word “Tram” had been applied to a coal waggon or truck in the colliery districts, while the rails on which a vehicle ran bore the name of a “Tramroad.”
