WORKMEN'S TRAM. A workpeople's tramcar now starts each morning at 5-45 from Rawtenstall to backup, and also one at the same time from Bacup to Rawtenstall. By these cars passengers are carried at half fare, i.E. fro Rawtenstall to Waterfoot one penny, and Waterfoot to backup one penny, but if a sufficient number of workpeople fail to take advantage of them they will probably be discontinued.For the public good it is hoped they will be well supported, for in winter time especially they will be found a great boon.
