I can't upgrade the 50 km/h tram tracks to the 80 km/h ones by building over the old ones. This is very annoying since to upgrade I have to destroy all tram tracks including stations and electrification, then build the new track and rebuild all stations and electrification.
However I noticed it is possible to upgrade the 65 km/h rail track to 80 km/h tram track by building over it.

Still present with ST r1953 (can't test a newer revision).
The tram tracks cannot be upgraded if they are placed on a road. Both tracks can be built on a road. (This doesn't show up with Pak64, because it has only one type of tram track.)
I think this is rather a bug in ST (=> moved to bug reports), and it was reported much earlier in the previous forum, but thanks for the reminder.
Attached: the .dat file for Pak128 tram tracks.
@PkK:
Generally a bug report should contain information about the version of Simutrans (and the pak, in some cases also operating system) in which the bug appears. Please try to remember that. Thank you.
I just wanted to remind that this bug is still existent. (Linux binary, 102 Nightly Mar 2 2009, PAK128 1.4.5)
Please try a recent version. I could not reproduce the bug.
you can find newer executables here:

I could.
Did you test on road ?
yes, now i tested with roads, and everything works fine even with public owned road ???
Strange enough. Why it doesn't work for me.
it happens only if there is a road and a tram track
here is a patch:

As it is implemented this bug must be intended behavior. Maybe prissi can tell more?

That is this bug report. ;D
I think this was needed at some point, because otherwise tramway were built on tracks. But I think this can now savely go.
gone in rev 2469 :)
@z9999: thank you for testing and your precise bug reports!
