Post World War II the Amsterdam tram services were resumed but it was very limited. Between 1948 and 1950, the GVB acquired sixty motorised three-axle trams and fifty trailers built by Werkspoor in Utrecht-Zuilen. During mid-50s tramcars came back into the spotlight. Between 1955 & 1960 around 200 new articulated vehicles, manufactured by Beijnes and Werkspoor in the Netherlands, were added to the fleet. After the trams had returned to favour in the inner city the neighberhoods like Western Garden, Slotermeer, Osdorp also finds place in GVB tram network by 1962. In 1972-73, the first group of articulated trams were extended by the addition of a middle section, to become bi-articulated trams. Between 1970 & 1975 a new series of LHB tramcars bearing numbers 725-816 joined the fleet. By 1980, GVB had 252 bi-articulated trams in use which was highest number in any city in Europe at that time. The network further extended to localities like Geuzenveld & Slotervaart, Station Zuid, Flevopark, Station RAI & Station Sloterdijk between 1974 & 1982.
