About Christchurch Tramway


The Christchurch tramway system was an extensive network in Christchurch, New Zealand, with steam and horse trams from 1882. Electric trams ran from 1905 to 1954, when the last line from Cashmere to Papanui was replaced by buses. A loop track was reopened in the central city in 1995 as a tourist attraction.
