A tram, tramcar, trolley, streetcar, or street railway is a railborne vehicle, lighter than a train, designed for the transport of passengers (and/or, very occasionally, freight) within, close to, or between villages, towns and/or cities. Trams are distinguishable from other forms of rail-borne vehicles in that they travel wholly or partly along tracks laid down in streets, usually on track reserved for the tram system. Also, most tram systems lack platforms; riders simply step off the car. This feature of trams enables virtually complete integration with other forms of transport and pedestrians making simultaneous use of the streets.
