Read more Read less Description Due to World War II, the construction of the popular bogie type had to be stopped and in 1942 the first scrap cars came onto the streets on lines 2 and 5. The cars were called "spare cars" or "swingpjatter" because of their somewhat rocking ride. Line 5 earned the charming nickname "lortevognen" because of the yellow-brown line color.

Photos from Copenhagen Tramway (KS) Prescription envelope: Copenhagen tram line 2 with articulated tram 806 (1993) The trams' colored line signs were both a practical and very festive feature in the cityscape, which was further enhanced in the evening by the colored roof lanterns in all possible color combinations. The last modern articulated trams were built only a short time before the final closure of tram operations and the trams were sold to Alexandria in Egypt.

The Danish Pharmacist is a state institution that is subject to public control. Pharmaceutical inspectors are constantly working to check the purity of the goods and the exact composition of the preparations. The drug prices, which are common to all the country's pharmacists, are prepared by the state. Consequently, they are determined in such a way that consideration is given to the public's interests as well as to the very high demands placed on the layout and operation of a modern pharmacy.

Although only 10 examples were built, the type of car nevertheless served as a model for many of Copenhagen Tramway's later car purchases. The cars were, as shown here, rebuilt during World War II with extended platforms and undercarriage.
