In Volgograd, the Tatra tram is deeply modernized from the 1960s

In the social networks of the regional administration, a video with an updated T3SU car after a major overhaul of the local VETA factory appeared. The initial Czechoslovak Tatra can only be recognized by the characteristic rounded body: double -glazed windows appeared, the sheathing has changed, the doors became swinging, the headlights are LEDs, the cabin for non -cash paying for the travel was installed in the cabin.

Tatra T3 wagons were produced in Prague from 1960 to 1999, and this is one of the most massive trams in the world. The outdated structure gives out a high floor of the passenger compartment: older people and passengers with strollers will have to overcome two large steps. Nevertheless, the Volgograd administration decided to extend the car of 1978 of the release of life and invest in overhaul!

Petersburgsky Gorelektrotrans revealed the problems of “antisancical” trams in Izhevsk showed an alternative design of Ziu trolleybuses from the 1970s, Moscow drivers paid the city 50 million rubles for accidents with trams

It was stated that after the upgrade the tram became 40% more economical, all electrical equipment and engines were replaced, door cinematics have changed, interior was updated, video surveillance cameras, new heater and lamps were added. For the first time on Tatra T3, the air conditioner has been introduced! After restoring the wagon, the run -up will be held and will soon appear on regular routes.

“Rebild” of the old trams is a forced measure. The regions cannot afford to update the rolling stock due to modern developments, because the new single -section tram costs over 100 million rubles.
