Comment Although the Mexborough and Swinton Tramways Company clearly issued uniforms (see link), the fact that marked buttons have not come to light, nor are any known from the other five NECCo-owned tramways (see below), it seems highly likely that the buttons were plain.

The NECCo also owned and/or operated the following systems: City of Oxford Tramways (1907-1914); Dewsbury, Ossett & Soothill Nether Tramways (1908-1931); Musselburgh and District Tramways (1904-1928); Rhondda Tramways (1908-1934); and Torquay Tramways (1907-1934).
