Spårvägssällskapet Ringlinien

Spårvägssällskapet Ringlinien is a working life museum in Gothenburg that holds a large collection of historical trams and transportation equipment from various periods of the city's development. The exhibition presents original preserved vehicles and equipment that demonstrate how public transportation operated in the city.

The museum was established in 1981 and documents the evolution of Gothenburg's public transit system through preserved trams from the early 20th century. The collection shows how the technology and infrastructure of this important city service changed over time.

The museum displays historical uniforms worn by tram operators across different decades and highlights how women contributed to Gothenburg's public transportation system. Visitors can observe how working conditions and the presentation of these jobs changed over time.

The museum opens on Sunday mornings and afternoons with regular guided tours that lead visitors through the vehicles and equipment. It is easy to reach on foot, and the exhibition is well organized so you can follow the different periods of public transportation.

Visitors can experience what it felt like to operate an older tram through a simulator equipped with an authentic driver's console from a vintage model. This hands-on activity provides a sense of the skill required to manage these complex machines.
