De Kusttram (The Coast Tram) is a service connecting the cities and towns along the coast between Knokke, 8.5km from the Dutch border and De Panne, 1.5km from the French border. At 67 kilometres (42 mi) in length, it is currently the world's longest tram line in operation. The line is built at 1,000 mm gauge. The Urbos 3 trams have a top speed of 70 kmph/43mph.
De Kusttram started out as part of the Belgian Vicinal tramway, a network of interurban trams that once covered the entire nation. The first section of the line opened in 1885 running between Ostend and Nieuwpoort.
The tram service is operated by De Lijn, the Flemish government-owned company that provides public bus and tram transport in Flanders. De Lijn began operating in 1991.
The 67-km (42-mi) journey through coastal Flanders takes slightly under two and a half hours non-stop. There are 67 stops between De Panne and Knokke.
