The Dunfermline and District Tramways operated a tramway service in Dunfermline between 1909 and 1937.[1]
History
The Dunfermline and District Tramways Company was a subsidiary of the Fife Electric Power Company, itself a subsidiary of Balfour Beatty. The company started services on 2 November 1909 on a route that ran from Dunfermline via Cowdenbeath and Lochgelly to Lochore.
On 3 November 1909 a branch was opened from Dunfermline to Townhill. A branch opened from Cowdenbeath to Kelty on 17 November 1910. A third extension opened on 27 December 1913 from Dunfermline to Rumblingwell.
The final extension was a branch from Dunfermline along Queensferry Road to Rosyth. This opened on 17 May 1918.
Closure
The tram network was closed on 4 July 1937. The depot at St. Leonards Street is now used by Stagecoach East Scotland.
