The following is a list of cities that have current tram/streetcar (including heritage trams/heritage streetcars), or light rail systems as part of their regular public transit systems. In other words, this list only includes systems which operate year-round and provide actual transit service, not ones that are primarily tourist services, are seasonal-only, or are excursion-type tram operations.
Some transit systems branded as "light rail" such as the Docklands Light Railway in London or the Ampang and Kelana Jaya lines of Kuala Lumpur qualify as metro systems (see medium-capacity rail system) and thus are not listed here – see List of metro systems.
Only currently operational tram and LRT systems are included in this listing – tram and LRT systems that have "suspended operation" or are presently under construction are excluded.
Legend Location Primary city served by the tram/streetcar or light rail system. Country Sovereign state in which the tram/streetcar or light rail system is located. SystemThe English name of the tram system or overview article for city. Year opened The year the system opened for passenger service. For older systems, this may refer to horsecar service for those systems continuously in operation since their horsecar era. Stations The number of stations in the network, as quoted by the system's operator. System length The system length of a tram/streetcar or light rail network is the sum of the lengths of all routes in the rail network in kilometers (or miles). Each section of track is counted only once, regardless of how many lines pass over it, and regardless of whether it is single-track or multi-track, single carriageway or dual carriageway. Type Defines whether the system in question is a tram/streetcar system or a light rail transit system (or, in a few cases, whether the system is a heritage streetcar system).
