Our trams are now back travelling to the Zoo and picking up passengers at stops along Great North Road. See the map below.
One of the highlights of a visit to MOTAT is ride on one of our heritage trams. A tram ride through Western Springs Park is a favourite with all our visitors and is a fun and easy way to travel between our two sites.
The trams run regularly during opening hours and for some special events. Tram rides are provided as a free service for the community.

MOTAT cares for a fleet of trams that originally operated in cities across New Zealand and Australia. Our fleet includes the stunning Tram 47, a double decker affectionately known as 'Big Ben', a rare steam powered Tram 100, and a number of Australian and New Zealand heritage electric trams.
The operational trams have been meticulously restored and are maintained at MOTAT in our Tram Workshop. Find out more about .
