I'm surprised you didn't mention that the tram runs on batteries within the city center because they didn't want to put up "ugly" overhead wires there. There are charging contacts in the ground at every stop. I think that's one of the most interesting features of the network.
If you ever come back to Luxembourg, there is a Schindler panoramic lift on the other side of the valley where that train station is. It goes 2.5m/s and offers a great view over the valley. It's called "Pfaffenthal Panoramic Elevator" for anyone interested.

That really is epic. Those trams look great. I really like how they've concealed the wheels.

[@geimfarinn]

Here in Akureyri the buses are free. However Iceland has no railway so transport across the country is via road or flights. Both of which are very expensive

[@lucastheelectrostar9176]

amazing tram.

[@SejLifts]

indeed!

[@TWMALX400]

Until they start cracking like most CAF trams!

[@JAIPARATA]

Those trams look very cool

[@AG7-MTM]

do you think modern transit vehicles are better than old ones? I say modern, not just for the accessibility features, but some of the GORGEOUS tram & train designs. Did Luxembourg hire a fashion artist to "model" those trams?

[@SejLifts]

It would be very nice if public transport was free in the Czech Republic, but i dont think something like that is happening anytime soon sadly

[@martinxxcz2919]

that would be nice, but public transport is already getting kinda busy so this is one of the reasons why it wont happen soon

[@nitotheincognito]

i do agree with this idea, it would be cool especially for ppl who dont speak czech ..

[@itsthatsebguy93]

To be fair all rail transport is free if you skip the fare. I once fare skipped all the way from Carlisle to London.

[@paulsavage4647]

How?😂

[@itsthatsebguy93]

@@paulsavage4647 Changed trains at Crewe to avoid the ticket inspection, got a LNWR train with no guards to Euston.

[@Usagi98962]

Estonia has some what to a free public transport on bus systems of some cities and regional buses and trains inside of capital city.

[@Andrewjg_89]

Lucky little Luxembourg getting free transport just like Germany. This is what Liz Truss the next Prime Minister should do with transport in the UK and to make it free for everyone. Or at least make transport free.

[@paulsavage4647]

It would be good but I don't see it happening in the near future. Although I have heard that in several areas around the country that from october the Government is going to subsidise bus fares to make them lower, but that is definitely not on par with what Luxembourg has done.

[@Andrewjg_89]

Totally agree 👍

[@BusSpotterSteven]

I wouldn't think it's good for Dublin to have free Public Transport in dublin but the thing I like about it is that you can get on Public transport for like €2.00 for adults, €1.00 for young adults and students, and €0.65 for children for all trains, trams and even buses

[@ichbinsnicht5860]

wait what only 2€ for a one ride ticket? In Germany it could be up to 8-10€!!! How?

[@dutchrailroadcrossings]

I was in Luxembourg this summer for a vacation

[@busestransporta-z781]

Awesome!

[@alpzepta]

Free transport yet it air conditioned while some country still non air conditioned yet cost money

[@benolifts]

I don't like air con on public transport as it drowns out the motor sound. Also on some systems with limited power supplies, the air con reduces the acceleration of the train.

[@Nemo1095]

Yes, Some NIce CAF Urbos 3 Trams

[@StraightOuttaPaddock]

wow thats cool, when we get this in london? xD

[@andrewthompsonuk1]

Instead of going on strike the train workers should refuse to collect fares and give us all free trains...

[@SejLifts]

8:46 ryanair allowed a bag like that? it looks a bit big

[@benolifts]

I had to wear all of my cloths when I got on the plane to make the bag smaller, also the bag can be packed down to a smaller size when needed

[@SejLifts]

@@benolifts smart!

[@ReubenAshwell]

A free tram system sounds wonderful don't it? Where do they get the money for it from?

[@beamerboy420]

Taxes

[@Myrtone]

@@beamerboy420 That is what concerns me about this trend, they rely more on the taxpayer than they do when turning a profit.

[@beamerboy420]

@@Myrtone yes, i agree
