As of June 2013[update], the Krefeld tramway network had four lines, operating in Krefeld and St.Tönis.
All of these lines, along with lines U70 and U76 of the Düsseldorf-Krefeld Stadtbahn, ran through the centre of Krefeld, on a combined double track route via Ostwall, using four rails per track (two of them metre gauge, and the other two standard gauge).
