European Railroad Discussion > Fall Euro Trip Part 2 - Surprise Tram System in Vitoria-Gasteiz

One of the pleasant surprises of this European trip was discovering the Basque city of Vitoria-Gasteiz.  Not only is it a really nice, lively city - it has a 2-line tram system that I did not even know existed!  The system was opened in 2008 and is a metre-gauge system, like the Bilbao system, which  opened in 2002.  Both the Vitoria-Gasteiz and the Bilbao systems are operated under the Euskotren Tranbia brand of the Basque region.
