Silesian Interurbans, one of the largest tram (streetcar) systems in the world, has been in existence since 1894. The system is spread over more than 50 kilometres (east-west axis) and covers thirteen towns in the Upper Silesia metropolitan area (Southern Poland) and their suburbs (Katowice, the capital town of the region, Będzin, Bytom, Chorzów, Czeladź, Dąbrowa Górnicza, Gliwice, Mysłowice, Ruda Śląska, Siemianowice Śląskie, Sosnowiec, Świętochłowice, and Zabrze, until 2006 also in Piekary Śląskie and Wojkowice), which is densely industrialised (coal, coke, steel and other industries; though decreasing since the 1990s) and inhabited by more than 2 million people.

One of the best tram systems in Europe!

That's true and they are doing a great job in recent years to improve the system - buying new trams and reconstructing a lot of tracks.

These trams are beautiful. Look like they were installed yesterday. There are dozens of US cities that would love to have this kind of thing, but absolutely no political will to fund it. You get what you pay for. If you pay nothing, you get nothing. Hence, moderate size US cities (ca. 1M people) with nothing approaching this kind of public transport.

It's so nice that you eventually visited Poland. :) Are some videos from other Polish cities to come?

Was hoping to see the scene portrayed in the thumbnail, but disappointingly not.
