  • This video will describe the tram system of Brno, the second-largest city in Czechia. Brno has an amazing tram system, with very frequent service, high ridership, and a diverse fleet of Czech-produced trams. The trams have become a beloved part of the city, with the locals giving it the nickname Šalina, a word that likely derived from the German language, as Brno used to be part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire when the trams made their first appearance. The most recent additions to the system are the shiny new Škoda 45T, Pragoimex EVO2 and the new metro-like section to Nemocnice Bohunice.
    This video is the 29th episode of the series Urban Transport, with full-on descriptions of various urban public transport networks (mostly in Europe).

    Thank you for the video about the tram system in Brno. They invest a lot of money, build new tram lines and buy new trams. 🙂

    I was in Brno a month ago and I was really impressed with the tram network. Tracks are kept in a really good condition so the trams can go pretty fast.
    Brno kinda reminds me of my city - Kraków. We both have tram tunnels as well as many different tram types! 😄 Aaaand both cities lack the metro system 😅
    Nice video!

      Brno has its stuff together on this part!
      Kraków is around double the size of Brno, I think it’s much more needed there🤔

    LETSGOOO MY CITY!!!!!! And I need to say, I love our tram system. The busses and are bit more wacky and get delayed too often for my liking (city needs to add more bus lanes and improve the traffic light cycles)

    Gotta say, I come from a small city and never used any public transport as it was not necessary. That changed when I moved to study at univerity, in Brno. I fell in love with trams all those years back and it remains to this day, even lead me to subscribe to you many months ago. Happy to see you covered my city this time, it's crazy to see lines I take every day in a video like that!
    My favorite line has to be 8, especially it's terminus station by Nemocnice Bohunice as it's a stacker of trams I've never seen before (two lines at the end, each able to host two trams and the first one arriving into the stack always leaves second as the second one to arrive leaves first), very interesting and fascinating to me! The underground section you mentioned is cool as well, especially because of it's rare way of entering the tram from the middle island instead of sides!

      Thank you! I hope you’ll keep on enjoying the fantastic public transport in the city! I truly enjoyed using it too!😁

    I will probably never visit many of the cities you make videos about, but they are so good I can't help watching. Keep up the good work!

    Great video! I am super glad you are making these. If i can add a thing from me, then i would reccomend you to show some unique and sometimes bizarre or never seen before tram types, lines, places, museum etc. For tram enthusiasts. For example, at the border of the River in the center of Brno, there is a railway line, connected to the tramway system, built like a tram in the asphalt, and is sometimes used to being stuff or People to fair centre on the other side of the line. Thanks for the excellent video, no change here 😅

      Thanks!
      All are nice ideas, but it is fairly hard to fit in, given that I have to do most of the filming in weekends or my own holidays. It also happens that these unique tram types are chilling in the depot once I am in a city. Regarding these tracks in Brno, well it is was a construction site at the moment I was there.

    i like it when you make videos about smaller cities, espetialy if they have like 2 or 3 lines, but this video is also great, i sugest you the balkan cities, some of them even have metros, like bucurest, athens and sophia, but i will also understand if you do not make thease videos any time soon.

    The new main station in Brno has been planned for about 25 years and the only agreement is to continue with the planning. So don't worry about this video getting old any time soon.

      That’s good news. Although, it could be a good excuse to come back😂

    You have to come to Ostrava. The most modern tram system in the Czech Republic.

      There is a high probability that that will happen this year. Stay tuned😁

    The name "Šalina" comes from German "Elektrische Linie"

      Thanks for the addition. I couldn’t fully verify the origins.

    Man, I sure hope the government hadn’t removed most tram systems in Spain. It would have saved us money, time and reconstruction of networks. Plus, these legacy networks look great with the modernization, especially in some of those reserved right of way areas

    Just a comment about English use: we wouldn't refer to the different elements in an articulated tram as 'cars' (which might refer to the whole vehicle), but as 'sections'. Thus: 'a three-section articulated tram'.
