\u201cAround the World in Trams\u201d moves on once again and this time we head to the Swedish capital city of Stockholm with photos taken back in 2007.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The history of trams in Stockholm started in 1877 when the first horse tram routes were opened; with the network starting to be converted to electric operation from 1901. This task was completed by 1905 and by 1946 the network had reached its peak. But just 21 years later, and with Sweden changing from driving on the left to the right, and the original tram system was closed. That was until 1991 when a heritage line was reopened (just shy of 2 miles long) and then from 2000 a network of lines using modern low floor trams started to open. There are now six routes running around the city.<\/p>\n
In this photo we see 76<\/strong> with an unidentified trailer when working on the heritage line 7. 76<\/strong> was built in 1926 and is an ASEA A1. Only three of this class remain with the other two (14<\/strong> and 92<\/strong>) being static exhibits at the Stockholm Tramway Museum.<\/p>\n
