Luxembourg Trams

The city of Luxembourg is the capital of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, a small country that is surrounded by Belgium, France and Germany. French is the official language along with German and the country is home to a number of European institutions. The first-generation electric tramway operated from 1908 until 1964 on metre-gauge track covering some 24km. In 2014 a tramway project was approved to build a new line from the south west of the city centre to the Kirchberg area with an option to extend to the airport, which is nearby. Opened in December 2017 the line currently terminates in the north-east at Luxexpo, where the depot is situated. This was the section that was built first and at the time of our filming in July 2019 the line continued south to Stäreplaz/Place de l’Etolle near the city centre. The fleet name is ‘Luxtram’. The Independent Transport Videos cameras have filmed the entire route for you to enjoy.
