Valletta Station365 viewsPostcard. Written on the back - " This will give you a glimpse of the only railway in Malta which runs only a few miles to the old capital Citta Vecchia. The full fare is only 31/2d. It is quite a Puffing Billy affair. It will tell you what its like when I say that when the train is rather crowded, they sit on the footboards. I've done it myself."Prefect

Staff at the Tram Depot446 viewsThe Malta Tramways were set up by the British corporation Macartney, McElroy & Co. Ltd. Construction of the lines began in 1904, with the main terminus being built in Porta Reale, Valletta, so that lines would run over Floriana and Hamrun, at which point they would diverge to different urban centres, including the Three Cities of the Cottonera and Zebbug, passing through Qormi. An extension to cover Birkirkara was later added to the original schedule. After 24 years of service, being declared insolvent, the tram company closed down on December 15th, 1929.Prefect
