Bergen Tramway - Trams

Trams

The system operated 70 trams and 48 trailers, which were delivered between 1897 and 1948. All but the last class of trams were two-axled, making Bergen the last tramway in Norway to take delivery of bogie trams in 1947. This class was also the first to be built by a Norwegian manufacturer, with all former classes being delivered by German manufactures.
