A Visual Guide to Moscow Tramways | << | >> |
For only four days the tram enthusiasts of Moscow were able to enjoy the long forgotten view of Tatra T-3 tramcars in regular service in the eastern district of Moscow named Lefortovo. Route 7 was diverted to Lefortovo due to track works in Rusakovskaya St. where it regularly operates. For more than ten years the lines of this district were serviced by Ust-Katav trams (KTM-8/8M); although newer than Tatras, those trams cannot deliver the same riding pleasure - at least, from my point of view. Anyway, it would be impossible for a real tram fan to ignore the opportunity to catch Tatras there where they once dominated, and the weather suddenly helped - the first day, 16th of October 2004, was one of the last sunny days of this autumn.
