Trams in Winterthur
The Winterthur tramway network (Alemannic German: Strassenbahnnetz Winterthur) was part of the public transport network of the city of Winterthur, in the canton of Zürich, Switzerland, for more than 50 years. Opened in 1898, the network also served the neighbouring communities of Töss, Wülflingen, Oberwinterthur and Seen, all of which were incorporated into the municipality of Winterthur in 1922. After reaching its maximum extent in 1931, the network was gradually replaced from 1938 by the Winterthur trolleybus system, until the network's closure in 1951. Throughout its existence, the network's operator was the Gesellschaft Winterthur-Töss (WT), which was renamed Städtische Strassenbahn Winterthur (StStW) in 1900 and Verkehrsbetriebe Winterthur (VW) in 1940. The company still exists today, as Stadtbus Winterthur (DE).
