Travels 2022 – Part III (Turin)

December is not usually a month where we travel to tramway destinations but the events that took place in Torino and the possibility to see many old friends and make new ones warrented this long weekend trip. Luckily the weather was good (little rain, sunshine and no snow – only on some mountains in the Read More

The end of the Milano Interurbans

Since October 1st (2023) the last surviving interurban tram line in Milano from Comasina metro station to Ospedale Mombello in Limbiate has been replaced by bus. Bad track (years of non-investment or underinvestment in the upkeep of the right of way) had resulted in a much reduced service for a long time and with multiple Read More

A trip to the 50 year celebrations of the ASVi museum in Belgium resulted in visites to various systems en-route at the end of September and early October: Wuppertal Schwebebahn (DE) -includes a few trolleybuses from Solingen near their Wuppertal-Vohwinkel terminus where they meet the Monorail Hotton and Lierneux (BE) – two ex Antwerp trailers Read More

from the archive: 125 years of the Belgian Coastal Tramway

In 2010 the Belgian Vicinal (by now called De Lijn in this part of the country) celebrated the 125th birthday of trams with many visiting tramcars. We went to see the big parade on June 25th. This is another post from our old tramwaymuseum.net website. Read More

from the archive: Milano Ventottos

Another blast from the past (this time from our old webpage ventotto.info). In 2008 we published a post detailling the history of the Peter Witt cars of ATM Milano. Yes, all except one car have been modified with a rear door for a very long time and thus are no longer true Peter Witts. We Read More

Museum Trams in Hainaut and the Ardennes

Whilst preparing the “from the archive” posts from our old website trammuseum.net we noticed that we had only shown a small selection of photos there dealing with the museum trams of ASVi and TTA (and the commercial Grottes de Han operation). We have put them all together here including much additional material, old and new Read More

from the Archive: Schepdaal Tram Museum over the years

For many years we ran the trammuseum.net website. For a long time it was the unofficial homepage of the museum (because there was nothing else available). When the museum was leased out by De Lijn (they already have a much larger tram/transport museum in Antwerp) the new operators objected to us running this page with Read More

Travels 2012

We have even added some more material for many of the visited systems – enjoy! December – Bydgoszcz/Bromberg (PL) December – Inowroclaw/Hohensalza (PL) December – Lodz/Lodsch (PL) Read More
