    This video is the 18th episode of the series Urban Transport, with full-on descriptions of various urban public transport networks (for now in Europe).
    If you would like to see the video about the tram system of Latvia's 2nd largest city (Daugavpils), click the link below: • Trams work in small ci...

    Great stuff. Never been to the Baltic countries and would like to visit once Rail Baltica is finished.

      How abouts Tallinn one. It's dying, not much time left. Rigas is far superior...

    Line 10 will not be eliminated, it will be moved from Bauskas Street on Lucavsala.

      @realdronthego  9 месяцев назад

      As I described, it will be redirected to Ziepniekkalns. But it is all in the planning stages, I guess we will have to wait and see :)

      @@realdronthego I know that line in Ziepniekkalns is in the planning stage, but line in Bišumuiža is not going to disappear, it will be moved to Lucavsala and prolonged to Kekava, but this plan is for very far future. Yes, You are right we just have to wait and see what will happen.

    What are the differences between the T6B5, T6B5SU and the T3MR?

    • @realdronthego
      @realdronthego  10 месяцев назад +1

      Most likely, this comes from particular modifications. “SU” are modified for the former Soviet Union, while the T3MRs seemed to have a different modification. But they all belong to the overarching model - T6B5

    • @deathblade2639
      @deathblade2639 10 месяцев назад +1

      T6B5R(aka T3MR) have a different engine, SCR power controllers and cab compared to T6B5(or T3M)

    I don’t believe in Rail Baltic. It was a great idea but I think it was ruined.
