Seaton Tram - Colyford to Seaton
The Seaton Tramway is a 2ft gauge electric tramway in Devon, England, running a selection of vintage trams from the UK with the oldest being 105 years old.
It runs for approximately 3 miles along the Axe estuary, on the trackbed of the old Seaton branchline which was closed in the 60's, from Seaton to Colyton, with an intermediate stop at Colyford where it crosses the A352.
This video is a 'passengers eye view' of half of the run, slightly compressed to fit into Youtube's 10 minute schedule. The entire end-to-end trip is approximately 25 minutes, with half of it being alongside the River Axe, which is well known for its wildlife, and at low tide you will see many different varieties of bird on the mudflats.

Seaton is a small seaside town in East Devon on the south coast of England. It faces onto Lyme Bay, to the west of the mouth of the River Axe with red cliffs to one side and white cliffs on the other. Axmouth and Beer are nearby.
A sea wall provides access to the mostly shingle beach stretching for about a mile, and a small harbour. Seaton sits on the 96-mile (155 km) long Dorset and East Devon Coast World Heritage Site, more commonly known as the Jurassic Coast. From here it is possible to visit rock strata dating from three geological periods in a 185 million-year ‘geological walk through time’.
Seaton was an important port for several centuries, supplying ships and sailors for Edward I's wars against Scotland and France. In the 14th century heavy storms caused a landslip which partially blocked the estuary, and the shingle bank started to build up. In 1868 the arrival of the railway reduced the use of the harbour.
Seaton was served by a branch line, opened in 1886, from Seaton Junction on the Salisbury to Exeter main line. The railway was successful and considerably assisted in the development of Seaton as a holiday destination. Seaton and Beer became the two most popular holiday destinations in East Devon. Part of the trackbed has been used to construct the Seaton Tramway to Colyton, a tourist attraction.
In the 19th century Seaton developed as a holiday resort, which it remains to this day. Seaton lost its largest holiday camp at the beginning of 2009 when the site was purchased by Tesco who opened a major supermarket on the site in late 2011. However, Seaton still has many accommodation providers including guest houses, hotels, a camping site and a caravan park. The church on the edge of town was built in the 14th century, with a squat tower dating from the 15th century. Seaton is also notable for having one of the world's first concrete bridges, built over the River Axe in 1877, by the Seaton and Beer Railway company.
The Seaton Tramway takes visitors across country to Colyford and Colyton. It runs alongside the estuary giving views of the nature reserve on one side and the estuary wildlife on the other. At Beer, about two miles west of Seaton, is the Beer Heights Light Railway; along with numerous model railways this is part of Pecorama, a tourist attraction provided by the model railway manufacturer Peco. On 26 March 2016 the Seaton Jurassic visitor centre opened in the town which is a time travelling experience telling the story of the natural heritage of the Jurassic Coast past and present.

Seaton Tramway, February 2018
On a cold, but clear Sunday in February I visited the Seaton Tramway for a journey up the line from Colyton. As the terminus at Seaton was still closed for a major building operation, the trams were terminating at Riverside Depot, with the unusual opportunity of a tour around the maintenance depot. In this video we journey from Colyton to Riverside Depot aboard Car No. 8, before taking a look around the depot and returning to Colyton aboard Car No. 15.

Le Tramway Historique de Seaton dans le Devon(UK) longe l’estuaire de la rivière Axe donnant accès à deux réserves naturelles : le marais de Seaton et les terres de Colyford. On peut faire des parcours à ravir les ornithologues car l’observation des oiseaux est l’une des spécialités de ce Tramway sous la bienveillance et la direction des experts de Axe Vale & de la Société pour la Conservation des Terres qui connaissent bien l’estuaire.
Il y a à l’heure actuelle 14 voitures roulant sur un calibre de 838mm. Ce sont des engins à des échelles différentes variant de moitié au 2/3 - quelques-uns sont de grandeur normal mais modifiés pour rouler sur des rails de 838mm.
Une visite au Tramway de Seaton est une façon intéressante et distrayante de passer une journée avec beaucoup de choses à faire et à voir pour les petits comme les grands.
Les fans des Chemins de fer à voies étroites et des Streetcar devraient être intéressés car c’est une sortie pour tout le monde.
J’aimerais remercier John le conducteur de train et tout le personnel qui m’ont aidé à produire cette video car sans leur enthousiasme et assistance, ce projet n’aurait pas été possible.
Ah…si vous voulez un tuyau…achetez un billet pour la journée et arrivez de bonne heure car une fois que vous aurez fait le trajet aller-retour, vous serez tenté de renouveler l’expérience encore et encore…
Seaton Tramway runs beside the river Axe estuary giving access to two nature reserves, The Seaton Marshes and Colyford Common. Bird Watching trips being just one of the Seaton Electric Tramway’s specialities being run by experts from the Axe Vale & District Conservation Society who know the estuary well.
There are currently 14 Trams running to the gauge of 2ft. 9ins. (838mm). They are of different scales of vehicle varying from half scale to two thirds but also with a few at full size but modified to run on 2ft. 9ins.
A Seaton Tramway visit has long since matured into a thoroughly interesting day out, with plenty of interest for both the dedicated tram enthusiast and hobbyist while being simply just great with families and children.
Narrow Gauge Railway enthusiasts and Streetcar (that’s for our American Fans that are watching), should also consider a visit as it is a great day out for everyone!
I wish to thank John the Driver and all the staff that assisted me in the making of this video as without all their enthusiasm and help this video would simply not have been possible.
Oh! . . . Just a tip . . It’s worth buying the day ticket and getting there early, as when you have been up and down once, you just want to go again, and again . . .

My Visit To The Seaton Tramway
On the 17/08/2019, me and my friends paid a visit to the unique Seaton Heritage Tramway in East Devon. It runs for 3 miles from the village of Colyton to the seaside town of Seaton with 1 intermediate stop at the village of Colyford. This video features some lineside shots of trams departing as well as a forward facing view of the journey over the tramway, from point to point, in both directions, taken from the front of a double decker tram’s top deck.
