Tram Travel

For inner-city travels, trams or streetcars offer excellent services, while adding to the atmosphere and conviviality of a city. The demise of streetcar networks in many cities during the past decades, a trend which is now luckily reversing, has been a sad loss and has largely contributed to general urban decay.

A tram on route 3 in Göteborg. This city on the west coast of Sweden has an excellent tram network.

"Peter Witt" cars in Milano, Italy. These splendid trams were built more than 70 years ago and still give excellent services to the Milanese people.

Another Milano tram in front of the Central Station. These vehicles are an unmistakeable part of the Milan cityscape.

Old trams have their special charm. This is a "chocolate" tram from the Brussels Tram Museum, which still comes out every summer weekend.

Another old Brussels tram, a "green" one this time. I act as a conductor on these.
