Schöneiche Rüdersdorfer Tram 88 nearby Berlin (2011)The tram line in Schöneiche-Rüdersdorf runs along the border of Berlin, with part of it operating within Berlin's territory. It has 1000mm tracks, while Berlin's are 1435mm; there is no connection between the two systems, even though both serve the Friedrichshagen S-Bahn station. The tram system started in 1910 with benzene-powered locomotives and trailers and was electrified in 1912. In 1977, it was extended to Alt-Rüdersdorf; previously, this stop was in Kalkberge. Since 1929, no new trams have been purchased; instead, used trams from other cities have been acquired. During GDR times, Reko and Gotha trams operated, followed by the Tatra KT4D from Cottbus, and since 1999, DUEWAG GT6 from Heidelberg. In 2009, they bought a Tatra KTNF6 from Cottbus, which has been in operation since 2010, and they are interested in acquiring two more. With four trams needed on weekdays, there’s potential to provide 75% low-floor service in the future. They intended to modernize and rebuild their old KT4D trams into KTNF6 models in the mid-90s, but Mittenwalder Gerätebau went bankrupt, and this plan was abandoned. However, the tram depot was already prepared for this tram type, which benefits current operations. While KTNF6 trams improve passenger comfort, the network needs to accommodate unidirectional vehicles. Several years ago, plans were made to extend the Friedrichshagen terminus to the other side of the road. This was necessary because there are no traffic lights or pedestrian crossings, which could be dangerous when connecting the S-Bahn station and the tram. Attempts to connect the Berlin network with the SRS were not realized. Instead, a third rail was planned to be built to the SRS depot for a turning loop for Berlin trams.By Klingl3r - November 23, 2011.

Ride along | Düwag GT6 | Line 88 | Schöneiche, Jägerstraße - S Friedrichshagen (2023)The Düwag GT6 also runs on the 88 student booster between Friedrichshagen and Jägerstraße, they have been with the SRS for much longer, and also used vehicles, and was from Heidelberg. On May 6, 2024, its service life ended tragically. On Kalkberger Straße, this car drove into an ex-Mühlheimer. The Mühlheim car with the number 78 was less damaged, but the GT6 Düwag suffered more damage, which is why it has now been decommissioned.By ÖPNV WELT - March 17, 2023.

Line 88: Impressions of the Schöneicher-Rüdersdorfer tram SRS (2020)The Corona pandemic has burst many holiday dreams like soap bubbles in 2020. But why travel far away? Look, the good is so close... With an ABC ticket from the Berlin-Brandenburg transport association, you can reach the Schöneicher-Rüdersdorfer SRS tram in tariff area C. There are chic new trams here, including the first new vehicle in many decades (otherwise, mostly only used ones were used, such as the Tatra-KT4D with low-floor center section taken over from Cottbus). And the air conditioning is a credit to the beautiful new vehicles: They are called Arctic... wink, uh, Skoda Artic. Only the stuck-on advertising foils are somehow so 1990s-style and spoil the overall impression.By MaxRaffael - July 15, 2020.

Restoration of trailer car 113 - Schöneiche tram - Part 2 (2024)The historic trailer car 113 of the Schöneicher-Rüdersdorfer tram (SRS), which matches the self-built railcar 73 from 1974, is now finally being repaired. You can learn about the work and background information, from the weld seam to the ride. By the canal, you can also often see views of neighboring Woltersdorf. We urgently need donations to restore the car to a roadworthy condition: Tram 88 e.V. Sparkasse Märkisch-Oderland IBAN DE41 1705 4040 3000 0074 30 Hello friends, today we want to show you how the bogies on our wagon were replaced. In the previous video, we already explained why wagon 113 was stored. When it was taken out of service, a broken road beam was diagnosed. To fully repair the wagon, the body had to be separated from the bogies, allowing everything to be refurbished and restored. First, the wagon needs to be brought onto the hoist. Since there’s limited space on the company premises, some items have to be shunted and moved around a bit. Today, to avoid unnecessary shunting, the KTVD 22 is also brought along. It’s still waiting for revival in the workshop hall. Once we reach the hoist, the real work begins. First, the wagon and trestles must be positioned. Then, the crossbeams are placed between two trestles. The wagon body then rests on top of these, and we can now start. The wagon body is finally up, and the bogies can be moved out. The hoisting position is therefore outside. Now, everything still needs to be cleared away from the decade-long buildup to see if the load beam is truly broken, once and for all. Out with it; luckily, only the spring is broken, not the load beam. For the bogies and small parts to be sandblasted, the car must be placed back on replacement bogies. These are now being retrieved from the open storage area. The interesting thing about these places is that they are identical to our current ones. They were intended for two additional trailers that were never built. After a brief adjustment of the replacement frames, they are now positioned under the car, and the car body can be lowered onto them. The car stands on its auxiliary legs, and now it can be taken out again. Yes, sometimes you have to use muscle power to maneuver it. The first test is over, and now it's time to go back, but the first treatment has already taken its toll—the generation gap. Almost 40 years lie between the two vehicles. A popular game on this day: moving bogies. We did this a few times, but only one time for the very last time. We go back to the hall so that all the small parts can be dismantled. And this is what's left.By Sebastian Schüßler - January 20, 2024.
