Trams in Beijing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the first-generation historical tram system in Beijing. For Modern tramways of Beijing, see Xijiao line and Yizhuang T1 line.
The earliest tram (有轨电车) service in Beijing dates back to 1899, and trams were the main form of public transit from 1924 to the late 1950s before they were replaced by trolleybuses that follow the tram routes they replaced. However new tram services are being introduced in Beijing's suburbs.
