Britain phased out all but one of its old tram systems in the 1940s and 1950s. One pioneering city had the foresight to bring them back: Manchester had been attempting to build a mass transit system for decades but in 1992 it successfully built the UK's first modern tram system, inspiring other cities to do the same. Now Manchester Metrolink is Britain's biggest light rail system, serving 93 stops, over 92km of track with 120 light rail vehicles.
