Trams in Subotica

The first tram line went from the Sombor gate to the present day NAP gas station in Mali Bajmok over Rudic street, follogin Korz to Lake Palić.

While neighbouring cities' trams at this date were often still horse-drawn, this gave the Subotica system an advantage over municipalities including Belgrade, Novi Sad, Zagreb, and Szeged.

Bus transport was seen as a cheaper alternative, and removing tramlines a way to free up space for cars.

[3] John Hartley Williams wrote a poem about the line, the "Lament for the Subotica-Palić Tramway".

[5] In the 2010s, the neighbouring city of Szeged started making pre-feasibility studies about a regional Tram-train system, that could be extended across the border to Subotica.
