How to unlock the Here's A Tram achievement in Cities: Skylines - Definitive Guide
Personally, I find trams a little tricky to use. They are similar to bus lines but they need a place to turn around. You can't simply do a single "point-to-point" track and add a line. Integrating the trams into your already existing road infrastructure can be difficult but worth it to add more mass transit. Tram rails can be upgraded into already existing roads or trams line can be separate like a train.
Once you've downloaded Snowfall, trams can be found under the "Transport" tab. One press and you will be on Tram, between Bus and Metro. The components for trams are the "Tram Depot" and "Tram Line". There are also five choices for setting up a tram: "Two-lane Road with Tram Tracks", "Two-Lane One-Way Road with Tram Tracks", "Four-Lane with Tram Tracks", "Tram Track", and "One-Way Tram Track".
To simplify things to unlock this achievement, we'll set up a quick tram line. Again, since you can't go point-to-point, you have to set up a circuit. Under the Tram tab, Press four times until on "Tram Track". Now just build a circuit like you would build a road. Make sure it connects together. Build a road that crosses the track (wherever you like). This is for building the Depot. If building away from everything, you might need to add a wind turbine or something for power. Sometimes it can be a pain to place but it should click into place. You might have to upgrade the road to add a tram track into the depot. Now choose "Tram Line" to set up the line, it is similar to busses. Simply click on the track and "Create a New Line" will appear. Press , now move the cursor to another place on the track and Press again to add a stop, now go back to where you started and Press to complete the line. Achievement should pop. It should look similar to below:
