The tram would run from North to South of Kolkata, and there would be no ticket for children below the age of 18. Even people above 18 can enjoy a ride with their childhood favourite books after paying the normal AC tram fare.

Kolkata Young Reader's Tramcar is an initiative by West Bengal Transport Corporation and Apeejay Anand Children’s Library team. And has books from different genres for young readers to encourage and inspire them to read.
