Answer 3

The terms “tram” and “tramway” were originally Scots and Northern English words for the type of truck used in coal mines and the tracks on which they ran—probably derived from the North Sea Germanic word “trame” of unknown origin meaning the “beam or shaft of a barrow or sledge”.

Answer 4

From English dialect 'tram' = shaft of a wheelbarrow, probably from Low German 'traam' = beam or shaft.
