		Tramlink is not shown on a standard tube map but is shown on the "London connections"?title=map.

		Tramlink meets National Rail lines at a number of stations, but because it runs in an area relatively under-served by the London Underground (one of the reasons for its creation), its only interchange with the Underground is at Wimbledon.
		Tramlink is operated with articulated low-floor Flexity Swift CR-4000 trams built by Bombardier Transportation in Vienna.
		Tramlink is not shown on a standard tube map but is shown on the "London connections" map.

		Route 292 was introduced on 3rd January 1962 on Mondays to Saturdays between Borehamwood (Rossington Avenue) and Willesden Garage via Theobald Street, Elstreet Way, Manor Way, Stirling Corner, Burnt Oak, Colindale, West Hendon and Cricklewood, replacing the northern end of route 52.

		Route C1 was one of four flat-fare routes between Croydon and New Addington introduced in 1970 as express runnings of the 130 group of services.

		2 tunnels were also constructed in a deep cutting and were known as Woodside and Coombe lane tunnels.
		Between the 2 there was originally a high cutting but due to regular subsidence an extra tunnel was built, which is quite noticeable if you pass through on the tram today.
		With World War 2 services were dramatically cut back and never really resurfaced to pre war standards as by 1959 services between Charring Cross and Oxted became hourly ceasing to stop at Selsdon which was promptly closed.

	CULG - Croydon Tramlink
		Croydon Tramlink is a new light railway in the south of London, involving a mixture of dedicated alignment and on-street running.
		To build the route two National Rail lines - from Wimbledon to West Croydon and from Addiscombe to Elmers End - were closed in 1997 and taken over; the NR route from Woodside to Selsdon was also used.
		Part of the route was previously used by the Surrey Iron Railway - a horse-drawn goods route that was one of the first railways in the world and was the first public railway to be sanctioned by Parliament.

	Croydon Tramlink - The Unofficial Site
		Croydon Tramlink is not the first tram system in Croydon - old London trams used to run through the town along the A23 which was London Road, North End and High Street.
		The Addiscombe route which branched off the mainline at the Almshouses and up George Street, passing East Croydon station and into Cherry Orchard Road, closed in 1927.
		Route 2 to Beckenham Junction opened on 23rd May 2000 with the Route 1 from Elmers End to Wimbledon opening a week later on 29th May 2000.

	British Trams Online - Features: Croydon Tramlink - Today and Tomorrow
		The routes are on the whole double tracked but there are some areas where the space did not allow for this and so single track is used.
		The trams used on Tramlink were built by Bombardier (who are part of the Tramtrack Croydon Ltd group) in Austria and are designated CR-4000, based on the K-4000 trams of Cologne, Germany.
		If the Crystal Palace route is given the go-ahead it would then be possible for the single line track on the Beckenham Junction route to be replaced by double track, meaning increased service frequencies.

	Croydon Tramlink
		Tramlink was built under a PFI scheme and is operated by a joint venture between Amey and an offshore company.
		Incidentally there have been 2 fatalities so far associated with these trams so it would be wrong to assume that they are safer than other transport modes such as buses.
		The Croydon Tramlink operates mainly on old rail lines or new private rights of way, but part of it also operates on the street and it is seen to contribute to congestion in South Croydon (tram breakdowns can also cause major traffic difficulties, and it certainly created many problems during the period of construction).

	Merton Cycling Campaign
		Thus the nearside of the tram should be at least 2.2 metres from the pavement kerb (allowing for a 1.2 metre cycle route and a 1 metre 'deterrent strip').
		Thus, to accommodate cyclists the centre line of the tram rails must be at least 3.5 metres from the kerb - this is considerably less than the Dutch requirements, where 3.5 metres is the minimum distance from the kerb to the nearside edge of the tramcar.
		Therefore parking and unloading restrictions are essential, with space specially allocated at least 2 metres away from the nearside of trams.

		The 'Tramlink Shop' is in George Street, opposite Safeway, open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, and the telephone number for information is 020 8681 8300, the ‘020’ being necessary when phoning from outside the London telephone area.
		The Tramlink hand-out map has been updated to include the new bus services which connect with Tramlink at New Addington and Addington Village - T31, T32 and T33 - and also to make it clear that Reeves Corner tramstop is for inbound cars only.
		Tramlink is just allowed to squeeze into platform 10 of the station and the one tram-long available portion of the platform extends under the overbridge so is in a dark and gloomy location.

		The station is on, amongst others, the London - Gatwick Airport - Brighton line and the First Capital Connect route from Gatwick through London Bridge to Bedford, as well as the London Bridge - Uckfield branch [which was recently overhauled with new Class 171 DMUs]; it is a well-served station with frequent connections.
		The station is an interchange with the Croydon Tramlink system, the trams of which have a stopping point immediately outside the front, and with the local bus service.
		As the major interchange on the Tramlink, East Croydon is notable for having two platforms -- one an island, the other backing on to the mainline station concourse -- with a total of three platform faces.

		In gauging the success of the existing Tramlink, the predicted passenger numbers were 20 million passengers a year after 18 months of operation, taking 2 million car journeys a year off the roads.
		The Streatham Vale petition is strong evidence that many residents want the Tramlink to come to Streatham and we believe that a similar strong vote in favour would be repeated if such an exercise were carried out in other parts of Streatham.
		We are proposing that, if this route was extended through Norbury to terminate at Streatham Common Station, where it would turn round, it would also provide a valuable direct local transport link with Norbury where a number of Banks, Building Societies and useful shops, which do not exist in Streatham Vale, are situated.

	Tramlink Route 2
		As this page completes the trio of Tramlink routes, I thought I should include at least one picture of a tram running on the street, so here is 2543 passing the main entrance to the Whitgift shopping centre in Croydon on Saturday 23 June 2001.
		Anyway, the line was singled some years ago, and this provided Tramlink with an opportunity to use the other half of the alignment to put in a single track line into Beckenham Junction.
		This is not so much to prevent trespass as to prevent accidents: Tramlink uses low floor trams, and consequently has very low platforms, and people easily can and do walk around on the track.

	Railway Technology - Croydon Tramlink Light Rail System operated by Tramtrack Croydon Limited - United Kingdom
		Today the Croydon Tramlink is an 18 mile network of three lines with 39 stations, the last of which was opened in December 2005 — Centrale Stop, in Tamworth Road.
		In March 2006 Tramlink invited tenders for the construction of one additional tram to meet the short term need for other vehicles to undergo overhaul and maintenance.
		First on the list of extensions is a 4.8km (3 mile) line from the terminus of route 2 at Beckenham Junction to Crystal Palace, providing an interchange with the East London Line and an additional bus link.

		The model itself is a diorama of a section of the southbound carriageway of Wellesley Road, Croydon, either side of the junction with Lansdowne Road.
		Through this section the route is single track with trarns travelling southbound only, crossing from the central reservation to the near-side lane prior to taking the slip road, adjacent to the underpass, en route to East Croydon Station.
		Operation of the layout is entirely automatic (fingers crossed) with the tram passing prototypically from left to right through the scenic area before reversing behind the back scene under reed switch control.

		Service 2 Beddington Lane trams now extended to Wimbledon to give a 15 min frequency evenings and Sundays with route 1 over the Wimbledon branch.
		The 223 and 224B were both DD routes, so the use of smaller buses for the U1 meant the route could penetrate some new roads to buses, especially around the Hillingdon Hospital area.
		Incidentally, when the W3 was introduced, the route was split on Saturdays only at Wood Green with both halves going down the High Road to Turnpike Lane Station as W4 and W5.
