9 August 2011 - Crich, UK - National Tramway Museum: A peek inside some of the depots at Crich Tramway Village (the new name for this museum) where nearly 80 trams of various shapes and sizes are preserved, some in operational condition. In this view are several of the working fleet - prominent is #22 from Glasgow in Scotland, one of the largest tramway systems in the UK and one of the last surviving `traditional` or first generation networks.

When did double decker tramways become popular?

@JP always popular in UK from the first electrics - circa 1900.

Was there any particular, first city with this solution? Horse-drawn trams had only one deck?

@JP - No, most early British horse trams (and later, steam trams) had two decks.

So I guess this solution has origins in XIXth century.
