歷史

舊寶靈頓道電車廠車棚(1908年)

香港最早期的車廠建於寶靈頓道堅拿道一帶。於1920年代,香港電車公司才決定選址銅鑼灣羅素街[來源請求],興建一個大型車廠,可以泊車及維修電車等,名為羅素街車廠。1932年,因電車數量增加,羅素街車廠已不敷應用,電車公司在北角英皇道加設車廠以供停泊。

1950年12月24日,廠內曾發生勞資糾紛,後演變為警民衝突,稱為羅素街事件

到了1951年,電車公司決定擴建羅素街車廠,並改名為霎東街車廠。由於車廠與霎東街及羅素街民居相當接近,而由波斯富街轉入車廠的是一條弧形電車軌,每當電車於深宵回廠時聲音便顯得特別刺耳,對附近居民的噪音騷擾頗大。

霎東街車廠於1989年3月30日搬往屈地街電車廠西灣河電車廠,原址重建為香港地標之一的時代廣場

昔日進入電車廠的電車路軌道至今仍在廣場外可以見到。
