Peak Tram Galleria

The Peak Tram Galleria sits at the lower Terminus of the Peak Tram on Garden Road. The main exhibit is the reconstruction of the original 1888 Peak Tram Machine Room with original items of machinery. As this was not complete, replicas of other parts have been included and constructed from photographs. These additional pieces are coloured in a neutral grey to differentiate them from the original full colour pieces. There is a reconstruction of the original open sided wooded carriage with photographs of passengers and mannequins dressed in local and colonial clothing. Other artefacts in display cases bring to life portrays of the peak tram including postcards from history.
