The Tramways of Marseilles – The Modern Tramway, Vol. 13, No. 150, June 1950
 
The June 1950 issue of The Modern Tramway carried a report by AA Jackson on the tramways in the French port of Marseilles.
 
Marseilles sits in a natural basin facing West into the Mediterranean and surrounded by hills on three sides. Jackson's article was based on personal observations in 1945 and later information provided by DL Sawyer and NN Forbes. He writes:
 
The suburbs extend to the lower slopes of these surrounding hills and they are connected to the center of the city by a tramway system that is now the largest in France. The original operator was the Compagnie Générale Française des Tramways (Réseaux de Marseille) but the tramways have been under sequester since 1946. The route mileage at the present time is kilometers and the gauge is standard (ie 1.44 meters).
