Only known photo of the human powered tram that once existed in Pyongyang. The rails were financed by seven men under the name Pyongyang City Railway Company and opened in 1905: in 1911 the ownership was restructured to just three owners, and in 1918 it closed due to increasing competition from foot taxis on the increasingly better paved roads. Google translate messes up the dates so bear that in mind.

Do you guys think that this is a picture of the human powered tram tracks? https://kutsukake.nichibun.ac.jp/CHO/detail.html?id=100102

It comes from this website which has many photos of the electric trams, but permission is required, they seem to be strict about the photo rights. https://kutsukake.nichibun.ac.jp/CHO/index.html?page=1

Not applicable; all photos taken before 1947 or published before 1957 are public domain
Since it has clearly been published before; their 'policy' has no legal standing

It's quite strange to see that before the Sun of Nation was born. Could the Japanese have been able to launch the regular electric tram. Or at least, horse-powered...
Human-powered vehicles are still pretty common in North Korea

In that case I will post the ones I found
One last thing to keep in mind is that the current name for north korea, 朝鮮, was the old name for the entire peninsula, so the city name is needed in order to know where something was taken.

Вы уверены, что в Северной Корее распространены рикши? С Юго-Восточной Азией не путаете? И вполне отечественные развозчики Яндекс-Еды на велосипедах это на сто процентов Human-powered vehicles. Велорикши в Питере тоже были, не прижились, но вполне могут возродиться в рамках Яндекс-Go.

Ну, электрический импульс в мозгу человека даёт команду мышцам) Так что в какой-то мере электричество присутствует, значит подходит под определение)

c'est marrant mais en vrai je pense que c'est plutôt une question des rails. Les tramways à vapeur et tirer par cheval sont acceptés sur le site, et sont la première évolution du transport par tram électrique.

Наверное, также как конка или паровики - эра развития городского рельсового транспорта.
