Rolling stock

In this section an overview is given of the rolling stock. Added are, as far as available, technical data and photos.

The tram started its exploitation in 1872 with mule cars. Since 1878 also a steam tramline did exist. In the period 1895-1904 the mules were replaced by electric traction. In 1914 this did happen to the steam locomotives. At first trailers of the steam tram and mule cars were electrified. Later new build electric cars were purchased. And in later years the workshops of the tram company did build new trams. Moreover freight was transported as well as coal for the supply of the power station. This all did result in a great variation of types of which not yet all details are unveiled. The history is mistyfied too because renumbering was done several times. However only the renumbering schedule done by the STCP in the late forties is found. Another renumbering took place in the first half of 1907 by adding 100 to the numbers. Probably with the trailers it was done in the opposite way. No data are known about the renumbering of the fleet in 1924 or of the renumbering of individual cars which took place during the years 1925-1945.
