Later trams the company operated came from a variety of manufacturers including English Electric who built a couple of toast rack style cars. The company also purchased a number of second-hand tram cars from the Leamington & Warwick, Darwen Corporation and Accrington Corporation tram companies.
The tram network suffered terribly from storm damage in early 1952. More storm damage occurred the following year. The company began to convert to motor buses, despite local opposition, with the final closure of the tramway in March 1956.
