In 1907, the metropolitan tramway network reached Waltham Cross.
The last tram ran in 1938, and the service continued with trolleybuses
until 1961. These vehicles were faster and more manoeuvrable,
not being confined to rails, but they had one snag. They could
not negotiate sharp bends easily without de-wiring. When turning
the corner at the Eleanor Cross they frequently de-wired. Routemaster
diesel buses replaced the trolleybuses
