Brussels Transit
Tram lines

Belgium

Brussels at one time had a huge streetcar network. Slowly but surely most of the streetcar lines, at least in the city core, are being re-routed to pre-metro tunnels, or replaced by full metro lines.

This page deals with the streetcars along city streets only. See pre-metro page for any underground portion.
