De Kusttram ~ Belgium's Full-Coast Light Railway

Belgium's Kusttram or Coast Tram is a light railway line going along the entire coast, between De Panne near the French border and Knokke-Heist near the Dutch border...
"At 68 km (42 miles) in length, it is the longest tram line in the world, as well as one of the few interurban tramways in the world to remain in operation. [...] The service makes 70 stops [...] with a tram running every ten minutes during the peak summer months, during which it is used by over 3 million passengers"
This year they celebrate 125 years of operations...
