The Lyon Tramway + '75' Mirror Train (2014)The Lyon tramway, lines T1, T3, and T4, features the impressive number 75 "mirror" train by artist Vincent Leroy. Here's a charming video of the Lyon Citadis trains, although I'm not particularly fond of their design. I wonder if the gauge of these trains is smaller than that of their Bordeaux counterparts. The "Miroir" train isn't bad; we have the "Miroir"... water mirror. In short, a large city that provides a variety of transportation options unique in France (Metro, Tram, Bus, Trolleybus). Well done, Lyon.By Dotaku - August 10, 2014.
