Tramway

1935

The electric tram in Lima made its first appearance in 1904. Its first route was the Lima-Chorrillos route, starting from a station located in the Plazuela de la Exposición (today Plaza Grau). The second route it covered was the Lima-Callao route, starting from the San Juan de Dios square (on a corner of the current San Martin Square) and ending at La Punta. By 1918, Lima had 39 kilometers of roads, and by 1923, it increased to 166 kilometers and even had an expansion planned. However, starting in the mid-1920s, the tram service went into decline due to competition from cheaper fare buses, as well as operational problems. Over time, the tram began to be dedicated to the generation and distribution of electrical energy, and by 1965, they stopped working entirely in the capital.
