Template:Infobox tram/doc

This template is a copy from Template:Infobox train (but with tram instead of train)

This is an infobox for generic trams.

Usage
This template has a large number of parameters, some of which, for historical reasons have duplicates that have been deprecated. Please note that parameter names are case-sensitive.

Only one parameter is required:

The remaining parameters are as follows (in the order that they will appear in the template output): Parameters below fall under the Specifications heading
 * background - the background colour of name parameter, either as a "colour name" (e.g. forestgreen), a hexadecimal value (e.g. #0093cf), or a colour template (e.g. #C2C colour). If the background is dark, please change the text colour by appending the CSS color selector. (e.g. background = black;color:white or background = #806040;color:#ffffdd ).

 * Note that articles using deprecated parameters are added to Category:Unusual parameters of Infobox tram template. However, each page might need a null edit to be included in the category.

Below are a full and partial list of parameters to cut-and-paste into articles.

Cutdown for a carriage / coach:
 * Use of one or more unrecognised parameters will place the page in.
