Trams in Novi Sad

As the time went on and the city grew in size, the idea of building a tram based public transport system began to take form.

[2] Initially there were 19 tram cars in the system, most of which were produced by the Ganz factory in Budapest.

In 1930 the city bought three buses, which started competing for the passengers with the tram system.

The bombing of a power-plant during the World War II, in 1944, knocked the tram service out of operation.

Retro cafe Trčika at the corner of Kralja Aleksandra Street and Mihajla Pupina Bulevard near Menratova Palata house looks little bit like an old tram, but except for the bogies, nothing comes from a rail vehicle.

[8] At that time, Novi Sad should have a fleet of some 50 trams, with a minimum capacity of 160 seats each.
