Würzburg articulated tram 237, manufacturer Düwag (Düsseldorfer Waggonfabrik AG), type GT 6, painted WSB, with advertising of 'neubert'.

The Heidingsfeld line was already laid out in 1929 as a "light rail line", and its own track bed has proven to be advantageous today.

Tram Würzburg, part 1 (2011)Würzburg is a city in Franconia, Germany. Franconia is located in Bavaria, but the people of Franconia don't consider themselves Bavarians. Würzburg has a tram system of 19.7 km in length in narrow gauge(1000mm) with five lines today. It was opened in 1892 as a horse tram and became electrified in 1900. Rolling stock: A few old DUWAG trams from the 60ties and 70ties are still in use, but only during the rush hours in school times. In the 1980s, the six-axle cars were extended to eight-axle cars. Some were sold to other cities. They aren't allowed to operate in passenger service on the tracks to Heuchelhof (which is located on a mountain), so their use is limited. Some were sold to Poland and Romania, where they are still in service today. From 1988 to 1989, they got 14 new trams from LHB, type GT-E. These articulated trams, which had three parts, were the first trams with a low-floor section in Germany. The door of the middle part has a low-floor area around it. Because of the steep tracks in Würzburg, the trams have all-wheel drive. This is the only city that uses these trams. In 1996, they got 20 100 % low-floor trams (five parts), Type GT-N, again from LHB. They also have all-wheel drive; again, Würzburg is the only city that uses them.By Klingl3r - July 14, 2011.

Würzburg tram line 5 (2016)The route of tram line 5 in Würzburg, Germany Right, stop, next stop, Maerinhausenstraße, where, for example, a train is going. You know you need a camera, but only on the train. It goes through Germany, exactly. So, similar—that's how it is, so similar. Oh, my mother—yes, no—come tomorrow, come tomorrow evening. Yes, bye. Yes, so on. It's okay, there's a lot to do. First, the costume was distributed. Yes, well, yes, people, let's get everything measured. Yes, yes, it's starting soon. Now it's July, August, September—about four months left. Still KPP, but it's been a while since then. Yes, I have until 10 a.m. today because there are beginners. Then there's a course earlier at 11 a.m., yes. The game tomorrow—no, I don't have a game tomorrow, like football. One hour, perfect. Yes, well, then for about an hour, but that works. Yes, then it's—yes, foolish. I thought I'd done too much, but no, I haven't. Well, the weekend is also loud—I know I have to take a break first. Why another week? That’s coming too. Other people are on holiday now, so they are not there. I know that's it. Yes, that's usually the case. Usually, but you have enough to do. You have Monday and Thursday—I see, I'm doing well. So, it's coming, bit by bit. I have to work it all out—bit by bit, all at once. You can't get rid of it. Yes, very good. Let's see, you can still do it. I'll call you again or something when you get the chance. Yes, exactly. No, well then, get well soon. Okay, take care. Yes, bye-bye. What are you doing today? I have to do it tomorrow, and I’m going to a party tomorrow. So, this Wednesday, next Wednesday, I have time. No, do you have time, Paul? The whole year—either or. Well, somewhere on the weekend, definitely. However, in July, my friend will be in Vel SAS, just like Pokémon. No, all the way to 99. You have to write in Google www.iz, so if someone wants to be your friend, you can say yes or no. Or yes—I was you—you have to download the game. Next, out—yes, yes, yes, yes—I'll tell you. Next stop—look, no, yes, no, a next right D—all the stones are back in the starting position, then the holes. Next, Reichelle—Germany—no, now G—oh yes, the Echtinon gone again. Next stop—I B. Next stop—long, yes, come next. Possibility—yes, but I, but Sch—next stop—no, you have to go there. Or next stop—very real, but otherwise Lettin, 10 minutes. I, Nextity Mar, and also the condition—next stop, Hastorte. Possibility for the Sowi connections—ha. Next stop—hour, Berliner Platz. Yes, what are the costs of 5 and 6? Yes, or schnapps. Next travel point—then rather wine, everything. I know tomorrow—Oma Grill, at the thing, a stand. Next stop—Felixfchenfachhaus KE. Every day—a camera. I would have—master—next stop—University Hospital Area D. Ha—clinic. Next stop—Robert Kochstraße in the K Reich G C. Frank B. to the end—you're not sitting—so now I sit. No, sit down, son, you may not go with the next stop—Aßeiklinikum Zentrum Opernentr.By esbek2 - February 14, 2016.
