This will be slightly shorter for me, but it won't make much difference.
I think I also found it in a magazine or book somewhere. The town itself is anything but famous or interesting: there are 13 in a dozen of them.
Also, the fact that a tram once ran there and was later closed : there are plenty of cities like that.

It remains surprising that the existence of such an experiment in a remote and unknown town is known far outside of Brighton.

It has worked, without any accidents. Something similar was never built again, sadly...
