INCLUDED IN GENERAL ADMISSION
One of the highlights of a visit to MOTAT is ride on one of our vintage 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 vintage electric trams.
The operational trams have been meticulously restored and are maintained at MOTAT in our Tram Workshop. Find out more about the MOTAT workshops here.
