Tramways Company took place in October 1877. In November 1879 it was reported that navvies were laying down the tracks in London Road.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The innovation was not welcomed by all the residents of the town. An article appeared in the <i>Derbyshire Times and Chesterfield Herald</i> on 15 November 1879 which read: </p><blockquote><p>The Derby Tramway Company have got their works in busy construction. London road and St Peter’s street, which cost the suffering ratepayers a stiff sum in renewal only a short time since, and which had got splendidly consolidated, are being ruthlessly torn up by the invaders. They seem to take possession of as much road as possible, and are not adverse to depositing their plant on a slice of the pavement. Steaming black kettles of pitch - more obnoxious that the Witches caldrons in <i>Macbeth</i> - fill the air with smoke and stench. The tram rails are of steel, laid on cast iron chairs placed, barely an inch apart, on a bed of solid concrete, paved with granite sets. In a short space of time the tinkle of the bell of the tramcar will be heard on the road. The busses are, of course, doomed. But the Tram Car Company take over the Derby Omnibus Company, Limited. This will surely handicap the first year’s profits of the concern; but the arbitrary condition was adroitly imposed by the Corporation, several members which are interested in the ‘Buss Company. “Veels within veels, Samivel.” What compensation do the proprietors of the private ‘busses, Messrs. Horsly and Hunt, get for their “vested interests,” I wonder?<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>The trams arrived in Derby in January 1880.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The tramway was inspected by Major Hutchinson of the Board of Trade on 3 March 1880.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The initial service was provided with four tramcars, each hauled by one horse, except for the stretch along St Peter’s Street where an additional horse was attached.
