Trams on the number 9 route on the Kornhausplatz (Granary Place) in Bern, Switzerland c. 1960. One tram advertises Yaset cigarettes. Behind the trams the top of The Kindlifresserbrunnen (‘Fountain of the Eater of Little Children’) is visible. This area is now pedestrianised and vehicle free but the trams still run up and down the street. The Bern tramway network began operating in 1890 – today it has five lines. Bern (Berne) is the de facto capital of Switzerland. This image is from an amateur 35mm colour transparency – a vintage 1950s/1960s photograph.

Bern (Berne) is the de facto capital of Switzerland. The official language is German. This image is from an amateur 35mm colour transparency. It will look soft if used at too large a size – a vintage 1950s/1960s photograph.
