At the end of the 19th century the tram played a huge role in St. Petersburg life. To this day hundreds of millions of citizens use this mode of transport every year. Over the decades St. Petersburg factories have released dozens of modifications to the electric cars. Considering the important part trams have played in the city, it is no surprise that the exhibit of one Petersburg museum is completely dedicated to the tram. The meticulously and historically accurately restored museum trams are identical to those which transported passengers around St. Petersburg’s streets many years ago. They are in full working condition and visitors have the chance to sit in the driver’s seat or in the passengers’ compartment to feel what it was like to take public transport in the past. Visitors will also undoubtedly notice a unique feature of St. Petersburg trams from years ago — they used to be double-deckers and run on steam and even ice!
