The only tram available is the horse drawn one. For A long time I just thought that no one had made any trams for the 1930s era in pak64. so never used trams or used short trains in the same role. But I was just looking through the "list of all vehicles" and see a bunch of them.
Am I missing something obvious? I can't build them in a tram depot or any depot(I looked) Where are all the trams hiding?
Update: I found it. you have to put a depot on an electrified rail. this opens up electric trains. I have been playing simutrans for 10 years now and never knew this, So many new possibilities. I feel bad now, it's line one of the help text.
THe electrified-rail thing has to be one of the most difficult parts of the steep learning curve for Simutrans. I think there's been a lot of discussion over the years on ways to make it more obvious, but nobody's come up with something that seems worth it. So....... a hearty welcome to Simutrans, ten years late ;-)

Adding it to the tutorial would be an option today.
