Hankou downtown trams

edit

Trams were planned since the Qing dynasty when Hankou served as one of the major economic centers of China.[7][8] New plans to bring the never built trams back to the streets of Hankou downtown emerged around 2014.[9] No actual construction has taken place as of 2017 in spite of the plans of the trams were made.[10]
