Excerpt from Wikipedia

The Duisburg tramway network (German: Straßenbahnnetz Duisburg) is a network of tramways forming part of the public transport system in Duisburg, a city in the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

Opened in 1881, the network has been operated since 1940 by the Duisburger Verkehrsgesellschaft [de] (DVG) and is integrated into the Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Ruhr (VRR). It now forms part of the larger Duisburg Stadtbahn system, which in turn makes up part of the Rhine-Ruhr Stadtbahn system.

Rolling stock

43 type GT10NC-DU trams are operated in Duisburg, which were built by Duewag from 1986 until 1993. The first of 47 new Bombardier Flexity trams was delivered in 2020, which are scheduled to replace the old trams.
