Fun fact: It’s called the Berlin Tram because it runs in the city of Berlin.
Follow me for more tram facts!
which is incorrect, since the tramways that survived the berlin wall were outside the wall, and thus should be called the berlOUT tram.
Go to sleep, dad.

I've got a fact! In the early 1950s, Germany was already divided into East and West Germany, and Berlin was, too, but it was still possible to travel between the two countries. East and West Berlin each had their own tram company (BVG East and BVG West), and all lines that crossed the border were shared by the two companies. If a BVG West tram made its way to East Berlin, it had to adhere to the local laws there, obviously, and BVG East trams had to adhere to West Berlin laws when they were there. This caused an issue in 1953. In East Berlin, women were allowed to drive trams, but in West Berlin, they weren't. West Berlin started rejecting BVG East trams driven by women, and all passengers had to change to BVG West trams at the border. This is one of the reasons why, beginning in 1953, East and West Berlin both ended their tram lines at the border.
@Mr_Mofu I might have Bucharest tram facts, idk...
No but I just want to say that picture is incredibly cute.
I was thinking, I was in Berlin last week and didn't see much trams, I'm not even sure I saw any tram. It turns out I only visited places bordering on the tram network.
One of the biggest networks worldwide according to German Wikipedia but mainly situated in the eastern half of the city due to dumb car-centrism in Western Germany in the 1960s.
