Description
On August 12, 2012, the Day of Transport History took place again in Frankfurt am Main. At this event, in cooperation with VGF and HSF, historic trams were used on the special service on line V. The line ran from the transport museum in Schwanheim via the old town route and Hanauer Landstrasse to Hugo-Junkers-Strasse. This also connected the events of the historic railway. Five courses and six cars/trains were used:
L-car 124 & l-trailer 1242.
M-car 102 & m-trailer 1804.
N-car 112.
O-car 110.
R-car 023.
R-car 020.
For operational reasons, one course was initially run with R-car 020, which was then exchanged for N-car 112 at midday. The R-car 020 remained on the grounds of the transport museum until the end of the event. P-cars could not be used because there were no cars available for this purpose at the time of recording, in particular the previous museum car 190 was sold in 2012. In addition to the types already mentioned, the video also shows S-cars and EbbelEx trains that were on the route.
The other events of the Day of Transport History are not the subject of this video; I will deal with them in subsequent years.
