I Rode Luxembourg’s FREE Tram (2025)Join me as I explore the T1 tram line in Luxembourg, one of Europe’s most modern and eco-friendly public transit systems! From Luxexpo to Stadion, the T1 line glides through the heart of the city, offering a smooth, scenic, and completely free ride for everyone – yes, public transportation is free in Luxembourg!
In this video, you’ll see:
✅ Sleek, modern CAF Urbos trams
✅ Key stops along the route
✅ How the T1 connects business hubs, universities, and neighborhoods
✅ Why Luxembourg’s tram is a model for sustainable urban transit
📍 Whether you're a traveler, a transport enthusiast, or just curious about how small countries lead in innovation, this is a ride worth watching.
Hello again, and welcome to Luxembourg. In this video, I am introducing Luxtram—Luxembourg's relatively new tram system. I'm at Luxembourg Airport, one of the termini of line T1. I actually filmed this on my last day in Luxembourg before flying back to Ireland. The trams are made by the Spanish company CAF. Line T1 opened in stages, with the first section opening in 2017, and the extension to the airport was completed in 2025. Let's explore the tram.
As you can see, the interior of the tram is distinctive and modern. The trams are 45 meters long, 2.65 meters wide, and 3.6 meters high, with 75 seats and a capacity of up to 422 passengers. They can reach a top speed of 70 kilometers per hour. The previous day, I had the chance to ride the tram and explore the line more. First, I took a bus from the village of Schuttrange to the Luxexpo bus and tram interchange. This is the Luxexpo interchange, which also serves as a large park-and-ride (P+R) facility. Luxexpo is only two stops away from the airport terminus, but today I'll be traveling to the city center. Trams run frequently along the 16.4 km line. I filmed this in June 2025 - the weather was hot, so the air conditioning inside the tram was very welcome! The colored window panes create a very relaxing ride, complemented by the music that plays every time a stop is announced. I got off the tram at Rout Bréck - Pafendall. At first glance, it appears to be a typical tram stop, but it actually has a unique feature: a funicular train station. The funicular connects passengers to the Pfaffenthal-Kirchberg train station, serving as a convenient interchange for tram and train travelers.
I boarded the funicular, but I didn't have time to ride it. Time to get back on the tram. We are now crossing the Grand Duchess Charlotte Bridge. This stop is called Étoile (or Stäreplaz in Luxembourgish). We are now crossing the Adolphe Bridge. For my next stop, I will get off at Luxembourg's central train station. At this point, it's worth mentioning that all public transportation in Luxembourg is free, including for visitors. After leaving the central station, the tram continues for another six stops until it reaches its terminus at the national stadium. I'm heading back in the other direction and will get off at Place de Paris. Time for a coffee and something sweet... And now it's time for my final tram trip, this time to the city center stop of Hamilius. I hope you enjoyed this introduction to Luxembourg's beautiful, clean, and efficient tram system. Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more videos!By Train Station - .

Public transport is FREE in Luxembourg's new tram (2022)I'm surprised you didn't mention that the tram runs on batteries within the city center because they didn't want to put up "ugly" overhead wires there. There are charging contacts on the ground at every stop. I think that's one of the most interesting features of the network. If you ever come back to Luxembourg, there is a Schindler panoramic lift on the other side of the valley where that train station is. It goes 2.5m/s and offers a great view over the valley. It's called "Pfaffenthal Panoramic Elevator" for anyone interested.
So, the big question in Europe right now is how many more places will offer free public transport, as it's becoming an increasing trend. Let's look at some examples. In summer 2022, for three months, the entire public transport system across Germany was almost completely free. That’s crazy and amazing. It costs just nine euros to travel on every train, bus, tram, U-Bahn, S-Bahn, and Dingle train in Germany for a whole month. That was fantastic. The only trains not included were IC and IC trains. Unfortunately, this was temporary; it lasted only three months. So, what other places in Europe have free public transport? There are a few small towns and cities that sometimes offer free private transport. In larger cities, one route might be free, but what about an entire country offering free public transport everywhere, with no end date? That could go on forever, which would be mind-blowingly epic. And that’s exactly what Luxembourg has done. All public transport within Luxembourg—trains, trams, buses, and long-distance coaches—is completely free. You don't even need a ticket to ride. That’s epic. Keep in mind that Luxembourg is a small country, with Luxembourg City being its only city, and also small. But still, if you're traveling from the city to a nearby village near the water in the north, which might be 40 miles away, that trip is free. That’s helpful for people living in remote villages. So, I decided to visit Luxembourg to see what’s going on there. Since my last visit, things have changed. Luxembourg now has a tram system. Let’s go and check out the trams. Yes, it looks like everything is yellow so far. Okay. Another thing that has changed since my last visit is the mainline trains. Honestly, Luxembourg has a limited number of trains serving different areas, and the train network is fairly small. But they’ve built a new station to serve the other side of Luxembourg City. To get from the station to the city, there’s a funicular. But before I show you the funicular, let's check out the new station. And now, let's take a look at the funicular. There are two sets of two funiculars, making four in total. Let’s ride and see what it’s like.By Beno - .

With the LUXTRAM through Luxembourg | Trip Report | Vlog #542 (2021)Vlog 543: I ride the still relatively new tram from Luxembourg's central station to the current terminus in Kirchberg and back. The interesting part is how it operates downtown because the tram runs without overhead wires and is battery-powered.
Today, we are in Luxembourg and riding the LUX tram, also known as the starter tram. This is Luxembourg's municipal tram. We're looking at the map now. Are you here in Luxembourg? In Luxembourg City, I plan to travel across the city from the central station to Kirchberg. The tram is brand new, having only been in operation for a few years, and we can immediately notice something special. It runs without overhead lines. I'll explain exactly how this works in the video. We start here at Luxembourg's central station, which is visible now, and right in front of it is the tram stop. We'll take a quick look inside the tram, then I'll show more details later when it's quieter. Now we're heading toward the city center, passing through it, then up to Kirchberg. You can see the tram, which is very modern. Here, we're crossing the Pont Adolf and will arrive in the center of Kirchberg. We are not driving directly through the city center. Still, near its edge, you can already see Ascom and many trams approaching, as they usually run every five minutes, making the tram very reliable here. Another advantage of the tram, along with all public transportation in Luxembourg, is that it's free—you don't need a ticket. We now cross the red bridge and arrive at the Pfaffenteich Kirchberg stop.
There is a cable car down to the regular railway line, built so you don't have to go via the central station if you're coming from the north. Now we are up here in Kirchberg, Luxembourg’s most modern district. In the background, you can see the European Court of Justice. Yes, here is an event site called the Shell in French, Lacan, which is why this stop announcement, which may seem a bit strange to English speakers, is in French. 'Shell' here refers to the background, including the German Bank and KPMG, which are the company's headquarters. Many companies are located on Kirchberg, and that's one reason this tram was built here. Most Luxembourgers working in Kirchberg commute from the city or the surrounding areas, and now they can easily travel by tram. Luxembourg has a high rate of commuters.
Many people travel to Luxembourg from abroad to work there. That is why there have been congested streets and traffic chaos here for years, and that is why Luxembourg was the first country in the world to decide to offer local transport completely free of charge. Now, let’s get back on the road. You may have seen it up on Kirchberg. There are overhead lines; there are also overhead lines at the central station, but none in between. This was done to interfere with the cityscape as little as possible. The right to vote was a controversial issue. At first, there were some critics, and so you have a highly modern concept, on the one hand, and, on the other, it is also very inconspicuous. It’s actually true that when you are out and about in the city, you hardly notice the tracks at first.
In contrast to the trams, which run on overhead lines, it really has minimal impact on the cityscape. This is achieved via a battery drive, which means that at the central station and up on Kirchberg, the battery is charged. For the section in the city, the battery charge is sufficient to operate the tram without overhead lines. The model is a clock that goes up to 3 from the Spanish manufacturer CHF. Yes, I have already gotten off again, so I have now traveled the entire route there and back. However, the route network will be expanded in the future; it should go as far as the airport, for example. So far, I hope you've enjoyed this video. We found it fascinating. Here, you can see who the music is from, what the following video is about, and I always say thank you for watching. I would appreciate your likes, comments, subscriptions, or even links, and we will see you again in the following video.By Lucas Michael - .
