Glenanne Loughgilly Tramway
[1] George Gray and Sons, owners of Glenanne Mill, had the track laid out along the two and a half miles stretch to Loughgilly railway station.It was built to transport coal to the mill at Glenanne and finished linen products to the Great Northern Railway station at Loughgilly on the Newry-Armagh railway line.Work on laying the track was completed in 1897[2] and the first tram ran later that year.The decision to provide a passenger service was to ease the lives of the local residents.[3] The last tram ran in 1919 and the track was lifted the same year.
