This souvenir DVD tells the unique story of how, against all odds, Seaton Tramway became one of the West Country’s best-loved tourist attractions. Illustrated by previously unseen footage and rare archive material, you will see how the Tramway was developed by bold enterprise and sheer determination. This is not only the story of the tramcars and track, but also of the people who helped create the successful venture of today, which welcomes about 100,000 visitors each year. Our fleet of fourteen tramcars is supported by almost one hundred members of staff and volunteers, some of whom appear on the film to share their thoughts on many different aspects of the Tramway, as it celebrates 50 years of operation in Seaton.

This DVD, in its 3rd edition, gives an insight into the exciting projects that have been happening over the last 10 years. From the various awards to the outstanding achievements culminating in the new Seaton Station and heralding a new era at Seaton Tramway. Never mind the weather! Our trams run every day throughout the season. See wildlife and discover Devon’s hidden secrets, find out about our history, and travel in our “time machines”! Start your journey at Colyton and arrive at Seaton, the Gateway to the Jurassic Coast.
