We have used the presence or absence of tram horses to date many a photo over the years. Today can we focus a little on the working conditions for tram horses back then. We have seen photos of tramway buildings and power stations, but I do not think we have ever seen a Tramway stables or other infrastructure associated with the horses.

Those bequests were combined and on February 3, 1887, the Maine State Legislature established the Belfast Free Library. ..."

The trams were electrified in 1905, so date range 1888 to 1904

William Dobbin was master of the Hawk until 1803, and John Downie was master of the Dispatch. Belfast News-Letter - Tuesday 20 September 1803:
But by April the following year WIlliam Dobbin was master of the Dispatch. Belfast News-Letter - Friday 20 April 1804.:
Other notices show Downie as master of the Hawk in the following tears.
Some time in January 1808 Dobbin went back to the Hawk, and someone called Rankin was in charge of the Dispatch. This arrangement seems to have continued untilJanuaryJuly 1810, when McCormick took over on the Hawk. -
