Copenhagen tram line 2: Brønshøj - Sundbyvesterplads
Closed

Copenhagen railcar 77, manufacturer Scandia, signed Sundby.

The terminus for line 2 in the winter of 1938-39. The old trams were completely withdrawn from service from 1 May 1966, and most ended their days in a blazing bonfire at the landfill in Sydhavnen. A few have been preserved, and it is still possible to experience a ride on an old tram at the Skjoldenæsholm Tram Museum.
Line 2 was "busified" on 19 October 1969.

As early as 1931-1936, line 7 was run to Brønshøj Torv during the evening rush hour in winter. Line 7 was called "The Theatre Train" because of its terminus at Kongens Nytorv. With its short line, it was supposed to be particularly attractive to older tram users, which is why it was nicknamed "The Pension Train" and "The Old Man's Line".
