Trams in Messina
The Messina tramway () is a tramway forming part of the public transport system in Messina, a city and "comune" in the region of Sicily, Italy. In operation since 2003, the tramway is long, and comprises one line, linking Gazzi with Annunziata. History. Trams returned to Messina on 3 April 2003, after a long gestation and construction period. Messina's earlier urban tramway network had been disposed of more than half a century earlier, following the closure of its last line in 1951. The new tramway line replaced the former bus line no 28. The southern terminus of  the new tramway, at Gazzi, was activated later; initially, the tram stop at Bonino marked the southern end of the line. Rolling stock. The tram service is provided by 15 modern 5-section Alstom Cityway articulated trams. External links. "This article is based upon a translation of the as at March 2011."
