The Branch Line Society are running a tram trip in Germany later this month and there remain spaces left to grab your chance to take a ride on what is the last day of three days out in Saxony for the BLS.
On Monday 15th June 2026 the BLS are hiring a tram to cover as much possible non-passenger rare and difficult track of the Braunschweig tram network. It is an evening tour departing at 1746 with it timed to finish at around dusk (although there will be opportunities to leave the tour before that).
Tram 41 – a ‘Mannheim’ type tram from the 1970s – is due to be used on the tour.
The route of the tour is planned to be:
Braunschweig Hauptbahnhof (17:46) – Schleife H.-Bussring – Hauptbahnhof – St.Leonhard – Rathaus – Hamburger Strasse – Gesundheitsamt – Stadion – Gesundheitsamt – Hamburger Strasse – Hagenmarkt line 4 – Rathaus – John F.-Kennedy Platz – Friedrich Wilhelm Platz – Cyriaksring – Weserstrasse – Cyriaksring – Friedrich Wilhelm Platz – John F.-Kennedy Platz – Rathaus – Gesundheitsamt – Carl Miele Strasse – Gesundheitsamt – Rathaus – Friedrich Wilhelm Strasses – Friedrich Wilhelm Platz – John F.-Kennedy Platz – Campestrasse – Hauptbahnhof – Burgerpark – Sachsendamm – Salzdahlumer Weg – Sachsendamm – Anklamstrasse – Sachsendamm – Burgerpark – Leisewitzstrasse – John F.-Kennedy Platz – Campestrasse – Hauptbahnhof – Schleife H.- Bussring – St. Leonhard – Ackerstrasse – BSVG – Tram depot rundfahrt – BSVG – Ackerstrasse – St. Leonhard – Viewegsgarten – Campestrasse – John F.-Kennedy Platz – Leisewitzstrasse – Burgerpark – Hauptbahnhof (21:42)
