The Andaman Islands, Navy Bay Tramways were in use in 1875-76 on a land reclamation project. One tramway was used to build a bund across the bay. The other used for hauling cut timber to and from the sawmills. It is possible that the tramways were subsequently dismantled and utilised elsewhere, [1]
