In about 1854-55 a proposal was put forward for the '''Lucknow, Ganges River Crossing Tramway'''. The proposal was submitted by Messrs. Greenway of Cawnpore 'to construct a double tramway to facilitate the transit of the River Ganges'<ref>British Library IOR/E/4/864 p.92 "Proposal by Messer Greenway Bros to construct a double tramway to facilitate the transit of the Ganges referred to the resident in Lucknow."</ref> Messrs. Greenway were responsible for similar dry season river crossings of the River Ganges at #Redirect [[Jajmau near Cawnpore, Ganges River Crossing|Jajmau near Cawnpore]], 1853-54 and [[Furruckabad (Farrukhabad) Tramway|Furruckabad]]. This clearly would have been a dry season temporary track but no further information has been found. ==Further Information==See page '''[[Tramroads, Riverbed Crossings]]''' ==References==<references />
