Darlington, in addition to boasting the world’s first truly "‘modern railway’, once possessed an extensive street railroad. This all changed in 1863, when an unfortunate pooch (the prize greyhound of auctioneer Charles Miller) was killed by one of the towns trams. The owners of the street railroad company (the Pease family)were subsequently sued for the hefty sum of £50. As a result the company ceased running in 1865. Fitting perhaps that it was to the tram named either Wellington or Nelson that this unfortunate pooch met its Waterloo.
