List of town tramway systems in Denmark

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of town tramway systems in Denmark. It includes all tram systems in Denmark, past and present. Cities with currently operating systems, and those systems themselves, are indicated in bold and blue background colored rows. The use of the diamond (♦) symbol indicates where there were (or are) two or more independent tram systems operating concurrently within a single metropolitan area. Those tram systems that operated on other than standard gauge track (where known) are indicated in the 'Notes' column.
