29 September 2011 - Crich, Derbyshire (GB) – National Tramway Museum. You might ask why a South African tram is in the British national collection? In fact, this vehicle was built at Preston, Lancashire in 1906 for export and ran in Johannesburg until the tramway system there closed in 1960. Although it appears similar to contemporary British trams, it has larger opening windows (for the African climate) and bilingual notices in English and Afrikaans. It came to Crich in 1964, so was one of the first electric trams to operate at the museum. The Crich pub, like all other buildings in the museum street, was brought here from elsewhere and rebuilt – it serves good beer!

Considering your colonial conquests it's not so strange; I'd rather ask why there is a KTM or Timis in the British national collection if there would be one
