RIDE: Zwickau Line 3 Neumarkt-Eckersbach (2017)This ride shows the section of line 3 from Neumarkt to Eckersbach, which went into operation in 1992, filmed from the GT6M 902. The route was renovated in stages between 2012 and 2017. A special feature is the new beer bridge between the Neumarkt and Brauerei stops. It is the only tram bridge in Zwickau, spanning the Zwickauer Mulde.By Straßenbahn Zwickau Fancrew - .

OnTour Tram Zwickau (2014)A 26-minute tour of the Zwickau tram system. The four tram lines operated by the Zwickau Municipal Transport Company mainly use KT4Ds from CKD, along with some GT6Ms from Bombardier/Adtranz. The Vogtlandbahn also serves the city center in the Zwickau model. Hello and welcome to another episode of NVP and Tour. Today, we want to introduce you to the Zwickau tram. Zwickau is located in the southwestern part of Saxony, about 40 kilometers west of Chemnitz. Around 92,000 people live in the five city districts. The public transportation provider in Zwickau is the municipal transport company, SVZ. They operate four-meter-gauge tram lines over 18.5 miles, with 40 stops. Twenty-two high-floor Tatra KT4D vehicles and twelve low-floor GT6M trams are used. Using this graphic, we want to examine the route network first. This time, for clarity, we will start from the back. Line 7 connects the central station with the Pöllwitz industrial estate in the north. It passes the central stop, Georgen Platz, and Neumarkt. All three stops are essential junctions in the SVZ network. Line 5 also starts at the central station but branches off to the west at Georgenplatz. After crossing the Marienthal district, the line reaches its terminus at the municipal hospital. Line 4 complements the services on lines 5 and 7 by connecting the hospital and Pöllwitz. Together, these three lines offer a convenient service through overlapping schedules. At the central stop, you can also transfer to most city and regional bus lines. Between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., a limited service runs, with buses also serving Neumarkt, where they connect with the trams to form a star-shaped route. The east and south parts of the city are served by line 3. This service between Eckersbach and Neuplanitz is almost self-sufficient and only meets the other trams at Neumarkt. Tram lines: At the Zentrum stop, there is an option to transfer to the Vogtlandbahn, as in the Zwickau model—more about that later. We begin our documentation at the loop central station. Welcome to the Zwickau Lake District, because the forecourt of the central station definitely needs improvement. It’s also noticeable that there are surprisingly many bus stops for the bus lines running here. The tram loop at the central station is designed as a bypass, traveling counterclockwise. There is a siding at the stop itself. Now we move to the northern terminus, Pöllwitz. This loop is also traveled counterclockwise to avoid track crossings at the start. The loop itself is single track, but the stop has two siding tracks near Brunnenstraße. The routes of lines 4 and 5 pass under the railway viaduct on timetable route 510 between Dresden, Zwickau, and Hof. The tracks have been spaced out slightly to allow streets to pass around each bridge on the right and left. Here are some photos of the section of track between Kopernikusstraße and Lindenhof stop. We are now in the Marienthal district at Fritsche Platz. Here begins a tram bypass that uses two one-way streets. At the end of this bypass is a turning point, which a bus line also uses for breaks during the day. Behind Paulusstraße, the tracks and road meet again. We’ve now reached the endpoint, the municipal clinic. This loop is single-track and, like all the loops so far, runs in an anti-clockwise direction. The unique feature is that there are two platforms at the entrance where trams pause, and only when the departure time arrives do they continue through the loop to the boarding stop. Now, let’s get on the vehicle currently traveling through the loop. Join us and enjoy the return trip along the route just described. Alight from the tram and continue in the direction next to, well, as we approach the city center again. First, we will make two stops at the Georgen Pflanzt stop and then disembark at the central stop. From there, we will enjoy exploring the city center. Line 3 stops in Essen. The Zwickau city center area offers many beautiful photo and film opportunities. One is Schuman Square with the Fountain of Friendship. Here, the tram makes an S-curve between Neumarkt and Alter Steinweg stops. West of Neumarkt, line 3 leaves the city center heading toward Eckersbach and crosses the Zwickau Mulde on its own bridge. Now, here are some photos from the West Saxon University stop. From the road bridge, you get a good view of the route, both Kahl and Bergw.By nahverkehrsportal - .
