Official website of the Associazione Torinese Tram Storici

Turin, Friday 03rd September 2010 Versione Italiana Edition française Deutsche Ausgabe

Welcome to the official internet website of ATTS.

ATTS is the acronym of Associazione Torinese Tram Storici: it is a moral nonprofit company without own employees because its operative members are completely volunteers. The association is open to everybody who likes the tramways, not necessarily only from Turin. ATTS is partner of GTT: there is a specific convention that regulates the relationship. ATTS take inspiration from similar associations which operate abroad since years succefully.

Our goals are:

Find and to conserve historic documents about Turin tramway system, to spread and promote the idea of the historic streetcars as unique cultural heritage for the citizens.
Promote restoration works and conservation procedures of the vintage streetcars.
Encourage and organise manifestations and special services with vintage streetcars
Promote in Turin the idea of a “moving museum” (following the example of S. Francisco Market Street Railway) thus sustaining the foundation of an historic permanent line (integrated into the normal transport network) managed with vintage streetcars coming also from other networks.
Collaborate with similar Italian and foreign Associations in order to take part into partnership historical, cultural and tourist projects.
