I just learned that the City of Schwerin used to have DHL Cargo Trams (i.imgur.com)

From a brief googling on DDG: https://www.railwaygazette.com/light-rail-and-tram/parcels-by-tram-project-ends/66165.article

It was a trial run, and there wasn't enough demand. The trams also weren't permitted to carry passengers.

Thanks. Seems like bureocratic red tape killed the idea then... not surprised.

"there was lack of demand, and it couldn't also take passengers"

But hey, keep on reinterpreting words to support your preconceptions.

If you had read the article it would be clear that both of these were the result of bureocratic red tape, but I guess that is too much to ask from some people here 🙄
