Yangon Tram began service on a single tram line on 11 January 2016.[1] Yangon previously had a tramway network which closed down during World War II. Funded by Japanese investment, the tram line service at Strand Road terminates between Wardan Jetty and Linsadaung, Botataung Township, a journey of around 4.8 kilometres (3.0 mi) using a single 50-year old tram from Hiroshima Electric Railway in Hiroshima, Japan.[2]
The rolling stock is a 3-coach tram with a seating capacity of 200 passengers. The tram runs just 6 times each day,[2] from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm with a fare of Ks.100/-, around US$0.08.
An extension west from Wardan Jetty to Kyeemyindaing, and an extension east from Linsadaung, Botataung Township to Pazundaung Township, would bring the length of the line to 11.3 kilometres (7.0 mi); these extensions are due to be completed later in 2016.[3][4][5]
Yangon Tram stopped service on 1 July 2016 after only six months of running.[6]
