Berliner Strassenbahn-Betriebs - GmbH Verkehrsplan mit Fahrplan : Winter 1925 : Berlin tramways map and timetables : Winter 1925 : South Eastern section - Südöstlicher Abschnitt
The map, routes and timetables of the Berliner Strassenbahn-Betriebs-GmbH/Berlin Tramways Company for Winter 1925; the map states a date of 15 October 1925. At the time the city, like most other European urban centres, had an extensive tramways system.
From the first electric tram in 1881 the system grew rapidly by way of numerous separate companies, including a municipal operator, and these coalesed into the Berliner Strassenbahn-Betriebs-GmbH in 1920. By 1929 further reorganisation saw the undertaking become the BVG. In post-WW2 years the tramways in the Western sector were steadily abandoned until the last tram ran in 1967 whereas in East Berlin the tram remained. Following reunification in 1992 very limited expansion into the "West" has occurred but Berlin is still a major tramway system.
This section shows the "Spree Tram Tunnel".
