. This print from the British Film Institute takes us back to a momentous day in Accrington's history - the opening of its very first tram line in 1907. The image showcases an array of fascinating elements that transport us to a bygone era. At the forefront stands a gleaming tramcar, resplendent with its polished exterior and intricate detailing. Its vibrant colors and elegant design reflect both innovation and pride.

The scene exudes excitement as onlookers gather around, eagerly awaiting their turn to embark on this special inaugural journey. Their faces are filled with anticipation and curiosity as they witness progress unfolding before their eyes.

Through this snapshot frozen in time, we catch a glimpse of how public transportation revolutionized daily life over a century ago.
