> I meant that light rail must be much more expensive, but now I’m not so sure. I hadn’t considered you can have more passengers per driver and if labor is dominating cost then yeah trams can be cheaper! Well labor and gas/electricity. I think in most places in EU the electricity will win over gas easily. > often break down when there’s snow in the winter, leaves in the fall or sun-bending in the summer, which may not be noticeable on visits. Not an issue in Prague where I have experienced them the most. You can clean the tracks in similar way that you would clean the road, so the buses would not have much of an advantage.. > it feels like those networks have been kept alive for nostalgic reasons. i have not been there, so maybe its true tho Gothenburg seems to be investing into the network and buying new trams. So are a lot of other cities.
