Colwyn Bay, Clwyd, North Wales. Tram in middle of street advertising the Catlin Follies at the Arcadia Theatre, Llandudno (Gwynedd, North Wales). Passengers climb up to the top deck of the tram. Destination sign on tram reads Llandudno Pier. On top of open topped tram, a view from the rear looking forward with passengers sitting on wooden seats at front of tram. One woman has her arm through her companion's. Close up of Llandudno Pier sign with picture of a pointing hand. From roadside a lorry passes, followed by the open-topped double-decker tram. A woman and children wait to cross the road. Street scene. A single decker open tram rounds a corner. Cars whizz round the corner and overtake it, one quite dangerously. Tram is full of people wearing overcoats and dressed up warmly. Tram tracks near coast which look as if they have been partially washed away. A woman and a man stand by a shelter stop called Maes Gwyn Road, and appear to wait for a tram. A single decker open topped tram ride: a view looking backwards at the faces of the passengers. Most smile. To side of shot, a man (conductor?) holds on from outside of tram. Point of view (with shoulder of driver?) in shot as we trundle along one track of twin track route in countryside. From ground, shot of tram approaching road crossing. A motorbike and sidecar and a car nip through ahead of double decker tram. A single decker passes in the other direction. Conductor waves and a passenger waves a handkerchief. Another car has waited for the tram to cross, and now sets off. A single-decker passing below camera position on hillside, the road below. In a tram with several passengers. Young man and woman walk past camera position. A look at the connection of the pole with the wire. A banner reading 'Llandudno Welcomes You', letters suspended on wires. From grassy trackside a double-decker tram bumps past camera position. People get into tram. Man waves to camera. Tram sets off and passes one coming in the opposite direction. Shot of countryside.
