Heritage tram : ウィキペディア英語版 | Heritage streetcar
Heritage streetcars or heritage trams are a part of the efforts to preserve rail traffic heritage. In addition to preserving street running rail vehicles, heritage streetcar operations can include upkeep of historic rail infrastructure. Working heritage streetcars are closely related to the growing global heritage railway movement and form a part of the living history of rail transport. As with modern streetcar systems, the vehicles are referred to as ''trams'' or ''tramcars'' in the United Kingdom, Australasia and certain other places (with ''tramway'' being the line or system), but as streetcars or trolleys in North America. The last two terms are often used interchangeably in the United States,〔Young, Andrew D. (1997). ''Veteran & Vintage Transit'' (ISBN 0-9647279-2-7). St. Louis: Archway Publishing.〕 with ''trolley'' being preferred in the eastern US and ''streetcar'' in Canada and the western US. In parts of the United States, internally powered buses made to resemble a streetcar, are often referred to—inaccurately—as "trolleys". To avoid further confusion with trolley buses, the American Public Transportation Association (APTA) refers to them as "trolley-replica buses". == Operations ==
