We are looking to hire a handy person at Central Tramway.
We would like someone to help maintain our gardens and be available to help with maintenance tasks throughout the year. There will be a minimum of 16hrs of work a week, with the opportunity to increase those hours by learning the tramway operative role.
We are looking for someone with experience within the maintenance/ gardening role.
It is essential to point out that we are on a cliff side, as such the applying person must be comfortable in climbing up and down the stairs.
If you think this is the job for you please send your CV and a cover letter detailing why you think you would be right for the job to [email protected]

We had some special guests today from Sci-Fi Scarborough and scarboroughgarrison, keeping the streets of Scarborough safe for all us humanoids!
Sci-Fi Scarborough is at the Spa on 18th/19th April, we expect more visitors from realms unknown between now and then.

Over the years, we’ve received plenty of positive feedback from our customers, who’s opinions we LOVE to hear!

One such thing is the careful way we put effort into preserving this iconic piece of Scarborough’s rich history, with the hope of keeping it going for another 145 years!

However, we’ve noticed a change in air in 2026, and have decided to take on a new structural approach to the operation of the tramway.

That’s why we’ve introduced something super exciting…our new loop-the-loop! 🎢

If you’re looking for an exciting experience to add to the Victorian vibes, hop onto the Olympia tram for the thrill!

If it’s not your speed, don’t worry, the Grand tram still has the standard track.

We look forward to welcoming you down for this new addition this Easter! 🐣

As some of you may know, at the end of last year we lost our dear friend and colleague, John. His presence is greatly missed on the tramway and will continue to be without him.

This Sunday the 1st of February, there will be a celebration of his life at Indigo Alley for his friends and family. To reflect this, and to give a chance for our staff to share their memories and wish him farewell, we will be closing early on Sunday, at 12:30.

We hope our customers can understand and respect this decision during this sad time.

Thank you for your understanding,

The Central Tramway Team ❤
