What happens

The Prince of Wales and the New Electric Tramway è un cortometraggio muto del 1903. Il nome del regista non viene riportato nei credit del film né vi appare quello di un operatore. Dal 1899, il London County Council, il principale organo di governo locale della contea di Londra, acquisì e gestì i tram in tutta la contea, provvedendo alla loro elettrificazione a partire dal 1903.
