Prescription envelope: Copenhagen tram line 11 at Brønshøj (1995)One of the newly introduced "scrap trains" on line 11 was established on 22 April 1944 with a route between Brønshøj and Kg. Enghave. On 29 November 1945 the line was extended to Husum, and on 16 October 1953 it was rerouted to Godthåbsvej. Line 11 was closed on 21 July 1958.

Prescription envelope: Copenhagen tram line 11 with railcar 311 (1993)Architect Knud Valdemar Engelhardt designed this type of motor car, which was built in 1910 by "Scandia" in Randers. 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.

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.

Prescription envelope: Copenhagen night line E at Brønshøj (1995)Night line E served Brønshøj as a tram from 29 November 1938 to 11 April 1940, and again from 15 March 1952 to 3 November 1958, when night service became purely bus service. Later, the night line letter designations were changed to line numbers with 900 in front, thus line E became 905. In addition to the usual colored line lanterns, the night trams had red destination signs and blue front lanterns.

Prescription envelope: Copenhagen railcar 426 (1993)Typical old line 8 truck train, as older Copenhageners remember it. Line 8 came to Brønshøj on May 15, 1936, but was later shortened to Degnemose Alle in October 1953. The line was converted to bus service on May 1, 1965. Line 8 was nicknamed "Altankassen" with its green signs, and also "Mergelbanen" because of the older equipment.
