First electric tram system in Leith

edit

According to http://www.leithlocalhistorysociety.org.uk/transport/electric_tram.htm the Leith Electric tram opened on 3rd November 1905, before F.A.Fitzbayne moved to Leith. (open the image of the tram for the date and further information.)

The first tram is also referenced at http://www.edinphoto.org.uk/0_edin_t/0_edinburgh_transport_trams_1905_first_leith_electric_tram.htm as being in 1905.

The Graces Guide entry referenced has him responsible for extending the Tramway by 6 miles, rather than overseeing the installation of the first tram.
