The museum claimed to be the city's first tram-themed exhibition gallery, which explored the history of the tram system and its vehicles.

Lectures, model-making workshops, tram tours, and exhibition gallery talks were also offered by the museum.

In May 2018, the Peak Galleria owner Hang Lung Properties informed the museum that the contract at their location would be terminated on 1 September 2018, and that rent would increase threefold.
