Bratislava tram network (Slovak: Električková doprava v Bratislave) serves Bratislava (the capital city of Slovakia). It is operated by Dopravný podnik Bratislava, a. s and the system is known as Mestská hromadná doprava (MHD, municipal mass transit).[4]
Trams in the city have been electrically powered since the system was opened in 1895; there were never any horse-driven or steam-powered trams in Bratislava. It is the one of two urban tram systems in Slovakia with the other system located in Košice. Conversions to standard-gauge railway have been proposed in the past, but the network uses narrow-gauge 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) track also known as metre-gauge. Rolling stock consists of 211 tram vehicles and trams operate on five lines over approximately 42 km (26 mi) of track.
