It is that time of the week again when we go “Around the World in Trams”. Frankfurt remains the location.
With Frankfurt’s main railway station dominating the background of this shot we feature an image of another tram operating a service on line 11. It’s the same line that we saw a tram in action on last week but this time its heading in the opposite direction with it bound ultimately for Fechenheim Schiesshuttenstrasse.
The tram we see operating that service is no. 036. Like the previous two weeks this is a Duewag built R class tram, with this particular example being introduced into service in 1997 – this was the second batch of these trams, each which consisted of 20 vehicles each and all of this latter batch survive into 2025.
