Model tram: The GT8N1 vehicles are particularly economical and environmentally friendly (2024)BSAG MOBILE FOR TOMORROW! Bombardier is building the vehicles using a modular system with proven and tested components. Spare parts do not need to be specially manufactured. All assemblies are easily accessible. Electricity is generated during braking and fed back into the grid. This saves energy. The trams feature improved suspension comfort, resulting in a quieter ride. The drive technology is quieter than that of the previous trams. The vehicles are also suitable for use on the BTE - Bremen-Thedinghausen Railway between Huchting and Leeste, meaning they can also operate on the planned extension of tram line 8 to Weyhe. ...

First new BSAG tram arrives in Bremen (2020)Early Tuesday morning, the first of the new Bremen trams arrived at Bremer Straßenbahn AG (BSAG) 's premises. According to BSAG, the new trams are supposed to be quieter, more comfortable, and more spacious than their predecessors. The new tram type from Siemens in Vienna is supposed to replace the old "GT8N" railcars from the 1990s, which are now showing their age, by 2023. Yes, the passengers have more space. Firstly, that's not just a feeling. The tram is 35 centimeters wider than the one it's replacing. The old model was 230 cm wide, while the new tram is up to 265 cm wide. Naturally, there is much more room for passengers. In terms of ride comfort, it's quieter and fully air-conditioned, unlike the previous models. That's a clear improvement—a noticeable comfort feature. Regarding the seats, I would say you probably won't notice much difference. A new feature on this tram is the incorporation of wooden seating in some areas. We're very eager to see how passengers will respond. We found it enjoyable during testing and trials. We look forward to seeing how passengers react. We want to get the tram into service immediately, but Company 7 has to adjust the vehicle properly first. After that, we'll gradually become more involved. We hope the initial brake tests went well. Everything was correctly prepared, as we say, to have a good start. Once the doors and passenger information systems are installed, we expect to start driving in about two weeks, after conducting approximately 70 brake tests to observe the trams' performance. The new trams and tram extensions—lines 8, 1, and the east cross link—will make the bus station much more attractive. The trams are barrier-free, which is especially important for people with limited mobility.By WESER-KURIER - March 31, 2020.
