40 years ago - line 7 switches to bus operation (1971)What a great film, great pictures, but it always gives me a little stab in the heart when I see trams. Just think if they had preserved this form of transport and modernized the network, it wouldn't have been necessary to reinvent the wheel, as our current talk about light rail goes on a lot.By SporvognDK - .

After a few years as a work car, it has been a museum car since 1936. The auxiliary car DKS no. 283 was built as a two-story horse tram around 1870 and was converted to an auxiliary car for electric operation in 1902. It ran as such until 1933.By Henrik Boye, Sporvejshistorisk Selskab (SHS) - .
