The museum's collection, much of it operational, includes almost every type of tram that ran in Adelaide in the 20th century. Adelaide's tram services started with horse trams that from 1878 ran on a network of lines extending eventually to about 100 km (62 mi) in length. Thirty-one years later, starting in 1909, the lines were upgraded and electrified. Forty-nine years after that, in 1958, all street tramlines were closed, leaving only the Glenelg tram line operating. In 2005, major investments in infrastructure and modern trams inaugurated what has become a tramways revival, leading to a 50 per cent increase in the route length of the city's tramways.
