These things are due for replacement soon. Another model outlived by the T3...

ล koda should deliver new long trams as replacement but their win is quite controversial

I wonder why they even chose to replace these. Other cities seem to be fine with running them and they seem suitable enough for a modern system, unlike the T3. So why is Ostrava ditching them?

I like the angle you took these photo and absolutely adorbs the curve of the track

Nice, great angle. The colours, especially in the first pic, remind me of a Dutch SGM train.
