===Trams=== Dresden has a [[Trams in Dresden|large tramway network]] operated by [[Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe]], the municipal transport company. The Transport Authority operates twelve lines on a {{convert|200|km|0|abbr=on}} network.<ref>Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe: {{cite web|url=http://dvb.de/untnehm/unnehm.htm|title=Profile|access-date=29 November 2006|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080128233503/http://dvb.de/untnehm/unnehm.htm|archive-date=28 January 2008}}</ref> Many of the new [[low floor|low-floor]] vehicles are up to 45 metres long and produced by [[Bombardier Transportation]] in [[Bautzen]]. While about 30% of the system's lines are on [[reserved track]] (often sown with grass to avoid noise), many tracks still run on the streets, especially in the inner city.<ref>Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe: [https://www.dvb.de/de-de/die-dvb/technik/gleise-haltestellen/ Gleise und Haltestellen] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170826071514/https://www.dvb.de/de-de/die-dvb/technik/gleise-haltestellen/ |date=26 August 2017 }}</ref> The [[CarGoTram]] was a tram that supplied Volkswagen's [[Transparent Factory]], crossing the city. The transparent factory is located not far from the city centre next to the city's largest park.<ref>Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe: {{cite web|url=http://www.dvb.de/untnehm/gbahn.htm|title=CarGoTram|access-date=21 May 2006|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071216101751/http://www.dvb.de/untnehm/gbahn.htm|archive-date=16 December 2007}}</ref> The districts of Loschwitz and Weisser Hirsch are connected by the [[Dresden Funicular Railway]], which has been carrying passengers back and forth since 1895.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.dvb.de/de-de/entdecken/bergbahnen/standseilbahn/|title=Standseilbahn: Von Loschwitz zum Weiรen Hirsch|website=Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe|language=de|access-date=13 June 2020|archive-date=30 July 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200730040631/https://www.dvb.de/de-de/entdecken/bergbahnen/standseilbahn/|url-status=live}}</ref>
