Portsmouth Corporation Transport

Portsmouth Corporation Transport was a tram, trolleybus and bus operator formed in 1898, serving the city of Portsmouth, and owned by Portsmouth Corporation. Tram services ended in 1936, trolleybus services in 1963, while bus operations continued until the company was privatised in 1988.
==History==
Portsmouth Corporation Transport was formed with an Act of Parliament in 1898, allowing Portsmouth Corporation to take over the existing horse-drawn tramways in Portsmouth.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Welcome to Portsmouth - THE PORTSMOUTH TRAM SYSTEM )
The right to purchase the existing tramways was exercised in January 1901 and the system closed whilst it was converted to electric traction, being completed in September 1901. However, horse traction did not end completely and continued on the Hilsea to Cosham line until May 1903.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Peter Gould - Portsmouth Corporation Transport 1901-1986 )〕 The compulsory purchase of all of the lines of the Portsmouth Street Tramways Company within the borough, left the company with a short stub line from the boundary at Hilsea to Cosham. The parent company, The Provincial Tramways Company, extended the line to Waterlooville and reopened as the Portsdown and Horndean Light Railway on 2 March 1902.〔 Through working later took place, until Southdown purchased the company in 1935, then shut the line down.
Trolleybuses replaced trams for the first time on the South Parade Pier to Cosham route on 4 August 1934 followed quickly by replacement of trams with trolleybuses on the other routes. The last tram was No. 106 and ran on 10 November 1936. Portsmouth Corporation Transport continued to operate the trolleybuses until 27 July 1963, after which it continued purely as a bus operator, until 1988, when it was privatised.
