Austrian Trams - Vienna part 1

This programme is part one of two produced from a visit in 2012. The filming starts at Scwarzenbergplatz. From here we film at various locations on the Ringstrasse, each section is titled for the location. We then film three circuits on board the ‘Ring Tram’, SGP E1 class number 4866. You will be able to see the beautiful buildings as we pass them as well as plenty of tram action. We continue filming on the ‘Ring’. Our next location is Südbahnhof, and a ride on board ULF 739. We are now in the southern part of the city on Quellenstrasse with a lot of action as our cameras move along this long busy street. A ride is then taken on E2 class 4323+1487 to Enkplatz on route 6, an interesting comparison with the previous ride on the ULF! Back on the ‘Ring’ we make our way to the two tier tram station at Schottentor. Here the trams wind down from street level to an underground platform and then make their way back to the surface. This brings us to the end of part one.
