Here is a picture of a tram in the street of Adelaide, in
Australia. A tram is a vehicle that is lighter than a train as a
trolley, streetcar, and tramcar. A tram was designed to
transport passengers sometimes also goods between town, cities
and villages. The tram is railborne vehicle. The Glenelg tram in
Australia for example is a tram that operates a way of 10.8 km.
It goes from the centre of Adelaide to the beach of Glenelg. The
Glenelg is part of the Adelaide Metro network. The rail route
was built in 1873 by the Adelaide Glenelg and Suburban Railway
Company which is a private company. The tram line was
constructed differently as it is now. In the past it was
operated with steam locomotives and not electric trams. In April
2005 the South Australian Government gave $21 million to extend
the tram system by 1.2 km to connect it through King William
Street to North Terrace and to Adelaide Railway Station. But the
constructed has not yet started. |
