The Indian city of Kolkata is home to one of the oldest tram lines in Asia. But after years of government neglect, the city’s once-expansive tramway network is on the verge of disappearing. A group of activists and tramway workers is fighting to preserve what’s left of the 140-year-old mass transit system.

As a Indian and a Kolkatan tram is our pride our soul please don't let it disappear #please 🙏🥺

What's the point of tram

As an non Indian and non Kolkatan please let them dissapear
@@nikhilPUD01 In entire India, Kolkata is the only city that uses trams and stands as a unique historical heritage
So do not ask what's the point in using trams
If they're not used then they will remain as a historical symbol
That Kolkata,that Metro(First metro ),that tram.
Nostalgia..
Kolkata should push this tram as a way to minimise pollution and efficient system .

Even though tram is foreign tech of that time and , may not be indian it became part of culture ,rich history of people lives there . Don't let it crumble, I went to kolkata at 8 or 9 once and remember it mostly because of its tram transport , it must have amaze me lot at that age , Each state has something unique. Tram is that for kolkata for me and many others like me.
If you call trams foreign tech then nearly everything around you is so one must leave everything.
@@kathibaba7665 I have'nt said anything about leaving here, in fact I just pointed out tram significance. It is foreighn tech as cause it's not something with its roots to that region but upon introduction, become part of life there. A lot of things in india are like that and nothing wrong with that. We all take tools in need regrdless of source . I don't want to be wrongly accused by telling it's completely indian. Someone will surely point out if I fell it's completely of calacutta. . A lot of useless arguments will rise and it still rose even though I meant it appreciative.
@@onewe2298e Everything in this industrialized era has come from different parts of the world. Even cars, buses, trains, flights are foreign. Heck even CZcams which we using
Being a resident of Kolkta, it is really hard to see a dying mode of a potential transport system.

this tram is literally full of nostalgia :( dont let it die please :((
The South China Morning Post can take out time for this interesting Short Film. What are the local politicians doing in India? I visited Hong Kong and the most memorable and fun part was the Tram ride across the city. Government of India and the Government of West Bengal will spend millions on new projects, but not improve a system which is already in place, cost effective and with less pollution. If only we can find a way for politicians to focus on welfare and progress. Jai Hind!
I suppose with new projects...it's easy to inflate the cost with projection/ budget/ estimates...hence easier to receive under table money....just my 2 cents...but I hope they save the trams in Kolkata...
First people should have civic sense in Kolkata 😅
Same in France.
@@elizaeri1295 you're correct 🙂
@@nikhilPUD01 kolkata is already civic enough to know that someone should not be hounded for eating beef ..
People of Kolkata should use it at least for keeping this heritage tram. It is one of the best things in Kolkata that is never found anywhere in India.
No matter what we want as a citizen of Kolkata. Only politics and money matters.
Then why did Kolkata vote TMC 🤡🤡 ? West Bengal brought it upon themselves by voting communists and TMC. Now it's a failed state
Hey um are you from patha bhavan. Cuz I live in Kolkata and I know an Anirban Dey who studies in paths bhavan. Also if you are anirban what a coincidence
This video unlocked a memory from 1999.
I am from Kolkata, trams are slowly going away because its very slow, its okay to ride tram when you have time. People here are running to reach office, using metro, local bus and trains, cabs, trams got outdated. But Kolkata loves heritage, we will keep Trams running forever, even though it becomes a joy ride, it will be there.
If investments can be made to keep the trams appealing and improve comfort, people would be more willing to use the system. But either way, it’s a part of the city’s heritage that I’m sure people don’t want to disappear.
In entire India, the capital city of West Bengal i.e. Kolkata is the only city that uses trams and stands as a unique symbol of historical heritage
If they are not used as a source of earning then they will still remain as a symbol of heritage
In Malaysia Penang also used to have tram but it stop operation a long time ago before they replace with trolleybus then normal bus. you could see the tram tracks along some of the georgetown road today.

#SaveKolkataTrams
These Trams are *_Nostalgia_*
I hope India keep their Trams.
The sound of train rolling over track is a noise to people but I find it hypnotizing and comforting.
tram is the precursor for next generation electric vehicle public transport 🔥
Growing up in kolkata made me nostalgic when thinking about this system gonna fade soon. Trams should be encouraged more. Modernization of trams should be done. We all should make more corcern and save the system from dying out
Present Kolkata trams has to be replaced with light rail like European cities.
Trams will eventually come back to India as Light rail transit. Delhi has already planned an LRT and several small cities too
Funny thing is Kolkata trams already operate on standard gauge. As long as a well planned city layout and traffic system is thought out, they can easily implement LRT in existing network.
Is there any difference between tram and light rail?
@@biplabkumarghosh6300 trams can be called light rail but definitely kolkata tram is not light rail. LRT systems have seperate lanes, air conditioned coaches, automated ticketing etc. Basically local train vs metro
@@biplabkumarghosh6300 To put forward some examples,
Trams: The ones operating in San Francisco
LRT: The ones operating in Tokyo
@@indicraft1775 Kolkata trams are already in partial fulfillment of 2 out of the 3 requirements you mentioned
1. Dedicated lanes- None of our tram lines gets dedicated lanes, but if the government is willing to refocus on public transit, it will be quite easy to get it on many major stretches of roads. Many of our arterial roads are very wide after decades of car-centric development. Maybe government buses can share those dedicated lanes, giving faster travel times to all transit users. Many bus routes on EM Bypass already operate as unofficial BRT routes with signal priority. Though it will be a challenge to get dedicated lanes implemented network-wide given it also passes through some narrow roads.
2. AC trams- WBTC already has a few AC trams. If the government is willing to refocus on public transit, it will be easy to make it an all AC fleet
3. Automated Ticketing - The ETMs (electronic Ticketing machines) currently being used by WBTC are actually quite easy to use. Though only conductors are allowed to use it at the moment, maybe the government can allow the passengers to use it in the future. There already have been reported cases of passengers using the ETMs, after the conductors behaved rudely with them.
Now if the list of requirements included things like stations/platforms, those would have been relatively hard to implement since our trams hug the road medians.
But yes convincing the state government to refocus on public transit seems to be first step. Even Central Government projects like metros are suffering, because state government doesn't care about public transit. For example, metro line 6 would have been operating till Science City/Mathpukur by now, had KMC built the third road bridge infront of Rudramani office a few months earlier. Line 6 was proposed in 2010-2012, but that road bridge still isn't ready
The problem is, they didn't update the network and system with the passing of generation. Modernization was needed back then in 2000, and now the condition looks pathetic.
It's not too late. Stockholm removed all of their trams in the 50s and 60s, but they're slowly making a comeback. But there has to be political will and action to do things beyond infrastructure for cars
@@Tidde it's not too late but the head of the state is too busy being corrupt. There is a rumor that she isn't even a citizen of India.

*Questions Indians can't or refuse to answer:*
Why India lied to the world by claiming that it shot down a Pakistani F16 after the Pulwama incident?
Because you cannot trust gee ling yan!
Indian media is a joke, why didn't they show 2 indian Fighter jets destroyed by paf?
Because the so called lie is a truth
Rip uyghur freedom 😂
As someone fortunate enough to live by one of the very few surviving routes (Route 25), I take the tram whenever I can, even if it means waiting for 10 minutes, and wading through fast traffic to take the tram in the middle of the road. Because if I don't do my part, the system will be closed down.
Autos (tuk-tuks) and trams share the same narrow route for a large portion, and taking an auto ride is basically playing with your life, given how unruly the drivers are. It makes no sense to run autos along that route, and even in the presence of autos, the trams see decent ridership. More dedicated corridors and right of way will allow WBTC to run more frequent trams, faster service, and greater patronage. But there's no interest from the government.
Trams are cheaper as well. My commute will take 7 rupees, compared to 25 on an auto. They're very accessible as well, I see people with disabilities, and senior citizens easily board the tram, compared to the stepped ascent onto a bus.
I've always been fond, and proud of trams, from a very young age. I used to take the tram when i was in school, and now, I take it semi-regularly for my commute as well. I'm doing whatever I can, from my end, with the hope that the system becomes more functional, and lucrative in future.

This Old Pollution free system must be continued. Trams are the lifeline heritage of Calcutta. It must be restored and the bygone routes which were closed permanently should reopen. Calcutta must find a big solution for the no. of petrol cars and buses, these old smelly,noisy vehicles should be removed and Electric Trams and Electric buses alongwith hydrogen fuel cell buses should be introduced in a controlled manner, then Calcutta people will get a boom in the Tram Transport system and also the city's traffic pressure will decrease to a less pressure percent. Trams should be remodeled, no. of workshops should be increased in manufacturing Trams, Trams companies should tie with Alstom Like Companies for this Old Heritage System and I think Calcutta should be Like London.
