Les tramways de Lille - Les années 1960
On January 29,1966, the trams of line B ran for the last time in the streets of Lille, putting an end to a 92-year history, initiated in 1874 by the first horse-drawn trams. Thus disappeared the last major urban tram network in France, twenty years before the rebirth of this mode of transport in many cities and in the Paris region.
Through the author's photos, all unpublished, this book evokes the districts and municipalities served by the last tramway lines that ran through the Lille metropolitan area, as well as the technical installations and rolling stock of the network, without forgetting the "Mongy", an interurban tramway that still connects Lille to Roubaix and Tourcoing today.
Passionate about railways and urban transport, Christian Buisson took many photographs of Lille's tramways in their last years of operation.
