Railcam UK's camera at Riverside Halt on the Seaton Tramway, a 2 ft 9 in narrow-gauge electric tramway running through the Axe Valley in east Devon.
About this cam
The Seaton Tramway is unlike anything else in Britain: the operator describes it as "a 2 ft 9 in (838 mm) narrow gauge electric tramway" whose "3-mile (4.8 km) route runs through East Devon's Axe Valley, between the coastal resort of Seaton, the village of Colyford, and the ancient town of Colyton". What makes it a railway story rather than a tramway one is the trackbed: the operator states that it "operates over part of the former Seaton Branch Line, which closed in March 1966". The trams are scaled-down replicas of British street tramcars, running on overhead wire beside the Axe estuary — a bird reserve, which is why the tramway markets birdwatching trips. The operator states of the first of these cameras: "Seaton was our very first dedicated tramway camera, LIVE from Riverside Halt at the Seaton Tramway." Railcam adds that Seaton "was our very first dedicated tramway camera".
What to watch for
Open-top and enclosed replica trams on overhead wire, passing at the loops, with the Axe estuary and its wading birds behind. Timings come from the tramway: "Timetable available at https://www.tram.co.uk/timetables".
