Dude seems like you visited just before reconstruction of Tunnel - Karlova Ves. It's nicer now - although more parts would need fixing. EDIT: Also trams in Bratislava always use the municipality name as destination or train station (Hlavna Stanica = main railway station, Stn Vinohrady and Stn Nove Mesto). The only exception I can think of is tram 1 since it's going from "Old town to old town back to old town" so they use name of the stop as the terminus.
@@doktor54321 He just ment it as, like soviet times trams.. Maybe he know nothing, that USSR and Czechoslovakia wasnt in one Union . We were just satelite state, not a member. He doesnt know, Tatra trams, from CKD were running, or that, in a lot of Ukranian's and Russian's cities, still do.. But theese trams was made in Czechoslovakia. Yeah, it pissing me of, too.. But who cares :D Enjoy the trams, people. And dont worry, he know now :)
While watching your other recent vids about the trip to Bratislava and Vienna (and the pricy ticket you paid for the short ride between them, David), I wondered whether there were any plans for a tram service between these capitals. I also looked up the article in the screenshot (at 5:58) and was interested to read this: "Tram transport in Bratislava began operating in 1895 with the narrow 1,000-millimetre gauge. […] In 1914, wide-gauge trams began running between Vienna-Bratislava." It would be nice to see such a service resume. I don't think the gauge would have to change in all of the Slovak capital, just some more dual-gauge track into a reasonable transfer point. Those disused outer rails look awfully lonely!
While such a connection would be cool, it would be slow compared to existing train and bus connection. Better idea would be to modify and refurbish existing railway line, which could be capable to connect both cities in half hour.

Some real Soviet era gems in there.
Those older trams were designed and made in Czechoslovakia, which Bratislava was part of. There is nothing Soviet about it...

@Štefan DarvašDon't forget walking and cycling.

The two cities are too far for a tram to be effective, but a proper S-bahn line from Vienna to Bratislava would be cool indeed.
San Diego called and like to have their tram design program back..
