The Swedish Tramway Society (Swedish: Svenska Spårvägssällskapet) is a nonprofit association for preserving local history of public transport. Founded in 1959 as the Stockholm Tramway Society (Swedish: Stockholms Spårvägssällskap), the association was later renamed as members joined from all parts of Sweden. The association is organized in eight local chapters.[1]
The association publishes six issues per year of its member magazine MFSS (Meddelanden Från Svenska Spårvägssällskapet) and the independent trade magazine Modern stadstrafik.[2]
The association operates the Swedish Urban Transport Museum in Malmköping and in Stockholm they previously owned AB Stockholm Spårvägar (SS), a company that operates several tramways in the Stockholm area including the heritage streetcar Djurgårdslinjen. The association also runs a heritage streetcar in Malmö.[3]
The official site of the Swedish Tramway Society claims to be the largest website in the Nordic region for urban transport enthusiasts.[3]
