Tram Museum Wehmingen (2020)

Tram Museum Wehmingen (2020)One of the most prominent tram museums is in Wehmingen near Hanover. You can see exhibits from all over Europe. Highlights include rides on the operational vehicles. A modest sign points to one of Germany's most renowned tram museums. In just a few minutes near Hanover, trams from all over Europe run and stop. Choose the display for this railcar. The train numbered 35 33 came from Bremen. The short, articulated railcar, built in 1976, was manufactured by Wegmann. It runs on the museum's own track, with proper stops. Car 389 is much older; it was built in 1951 by de Bug for the Düsseldorf trams. This railcar is a so-called association type, still primarily based on pre-war designs. Here in Memmingen, the old car has a new home, and as you can see, 389 is even operational. Many of the tram exhibits have been beautifully restored. Number 2 comes from Neuenkirchen. Behind it is a pre-war tram from the Üstra in Hanover. In between, there’s everything that tram enthusiasts love, from textbooks to DVDs. The 1895 Budapest subway train is one of the most valuable exhibits. Budapest's metro is one of the oldest on the European continent. Number 7,156 ran in The Hague. Next to it is the 281 overland tram from the former Upper Rhine Railway, which needs restoration. Line 11 was also a country road tram that ran between Hildesheim and Hanover until 1958. Next to it is the 461 overland tram from Viertel in Switzerland. The museum exhibits are all touchable, and almost every tram can be entered. The dusty charm of the 50s and 60s invites visitors to linger. Next to the Freiburg tram is a three-axle tram from Bonn. Over 100 vehicles can be seen in just a few minutes, offering a journey through European tram history. The horse-drawn tram from Hamburg is one of the oldest exhibits, though its exact construction year is unknown. A special feature of the museum is that it offers rides on its own tracks, without a schedule. The old trains run along these tracks. The 389 from Düsseldorf is back on the road, with its next trip scheduled for 23-04, involving the nearly 60-year-old train from Düsseldorf. The Bremen tram, now designated as Line 1, was much more modern when it was relocated to Osterholz. A T24 from Berlin is also on display; this well-restored tram has been operational again since 2008. The tram museum in Memmingen is open every Sunday and public holiday from April to October. With a bit of luck, visitors can even ride a Kassel tram from 1936.By The Travelling Drone - .
