Lucca drives a tram (2016)Lucca tries to drive a tram at Sporvejsmuseet Skjoldenæsholm. Please turn on the power and ring the bell before we start moving. Hard step like this, then it comes here toward me, and you take one more step. Stay right here with a high B on zero while we review this sporty section. Queue up here toward me and take another step. If there are two, it doesn't matter; we have K SK, not too much. Take one more step. Yes, then we’ll soon come to a stop. You need to drive back to zero, ready to brake. Pull it toward yourself to start with one. Hit one more, then again, again, and again. One more time, then the last one. You’ll see a signal with an 'S' indicating 'Stop'. Change the signal so we can get ready. Please ring the bell once before we drive. Queue up here again, then stay right until you hit the switch. Drive it back to zero, then you can do that now. Drive toward me—one, two, three, four, five. More, now more. One more here, then again. See how it goes. Okay, now we stop here. Return to zero. Be ready to brake—you take one, then one more, again, again, and again. Quietly and calmly, brake softly; it’s nice here. Back to zero. As soon as we stop, we drive again—ring the bell. Drive toward me with one more, then again. One more. Last one. We’ll come to a switch soon, where we’ll drive slowly in, then back to zero. Start braking with the Brake Switch—one more now. Stay at the switch until we get closer to the stop, then brake further down—no further, and again, again. The last one, then back to zero. Stop gently. Drive toward me again—one more. Nice, then back to zero. We’ll do one-two here toward me—no, the other way, the other way—toward me, then back to zero. There’s a crossing now, so ring the bell a few times. Come in. Great, then drive back toward me—one more, and again. One more, then again. There’s a stop down here on the right, so soon you'll go back to zero. Do that now, then start braking and continue without me saying anything—brake a little more, then back to zero when we stop. Ring the bell, then drive back. Drive toward me—one more, then again. One more, then back to zero. Approach with the switch in—good. Then back to zero again. Now, throw the switch toward me. Then it drives. Yes, you hit exactly where you need to, like that, and then back to zero. Now we'd better wait until he's filled up a little—that green one with the signal that says 'S' over there. Now we're going out and telling the signal system that we'd like to run when it's free. So now you're going out to work outside. I'm going to have to go all the way over there in the rain. No, it's not that much right now. Look here, here. Look, you hang it so that it hangs down there, then you turn it one way or another. Look, now the light came on in there. Then we've told the signal system we'd like to run it when it's free. So, we can get into the tram and get ready on that side toward me. R, R, you hit it fine; when you hit the switch, you drive it back to zero. That's enough. Who wants to own it? One more. And one more. And one more. Then it just runs. If you turn, then you drive back to zero. Right when you're underneath the bridge, you take a quick brake check. I'm all the way up to number five for Yes. We need to maintain the right speed. We're speeding up, then back to zero, and then you have to start braking with a Brake Switch one more time. Now, and one more there. Next, and one more thing. And the last one too. Okay, we can drive first, says the horse. Back to zero. Yes, then you ring the bell, and then you drive here toward me with a switch. Yes, nice, and one more. And then it returns to zero due to the next switch. We come to the very board switch, so there. Shall we drive quietly in? So, you can take two. The brake control signal says, 'What can we drive?' Yes. Then you give it a quick beat. Yes, FL. Then you drive back. Lucca tries to drive a tram at Sporvejsmuseet Skjoldenæsholm, K to NE. Then we drive one, two, three, four, five—here toward me. Yes, here toward me. And one more, one more, and then back to zero, because we will soon reach SK. What is the name of this stop here? Now you start to brake with a Brake Switch, and one more. And one more. By Jeppex - .

The Tramway Museum - Visit by Jørgen de Mylius (2013)

The Tramway Museum - Visit by Jørgen de Mylius (2013)The well-known radio personality and DJ Jørgen de Mylius visited Sporvejsmuseet with his family on Sunday, 28 April 2013. In addition to trying his hand as a coach driver, he also talks briefly about the memoir "Thanks for all the music." In January, Jørgen de Mylius celebrated his 50th anniversary at Danmarks Radio. To mark the occasion, he wrote a memoir titled "Thank You for Everything." In his musical journey, he reflects on over 50 years of experience with music. However, he also discusses his interest in the track, as he describes it himself. I had a chat with Jørgen de Mylius about his fascination with the track, but first, we're going out for a ride on the track with Jørgen de Mylius as the driver. You should be allowed to take control sometimes, so I am sure that... Have you turned it on? Have you turned it off? Now Ling Bu is coming like this? Do you give it one, two, three, four, five? Yes, okay, like this? Have you seen Ling Bu's girls? It was the one that only drove past the animal school, and then they were marked up. I teach my girls a little bit. Yes, of course, high. Yes, you definitely need that. I say yes, give two rams, thank you. Yes, we are looking at the signal. No, I. Then you give a contact to increase the number up to three until you reach the switching track, like this. No, I. I drove it so often, especially to Aarhusgade depot, because he often got off there and then back in zero years; his name is Larsen. It was so sweet of a father; I was always allowed what I could stand. Now, now we give it Pl again. Ah, how nice it is, Jørgen de Mylius. You have just been driving a car with the number 437. When we look at the annual report from the FR Tram Museum from 1984, you were also out driving in the same car. How did you feel about the reunion? What? Yes, nice reunion. I love both the sound of the tram and the general spirit of a tram. I still feel that way. I think it was terrible that those mayors—and the mayor and his apprentices—when they decided to abolish the trams, did not realize that closing some lines was not the way forward; they should have at least kept 10 or 8 of the lines. It was much, much better than those buses; rather than throwing all that away. You describe your interest in the track in the book you wrote about your 50th anniversary in Denmark, "Thank You for Everything." The music there describes your interest in the track, which dates back to childhood. Yes, it was kind of like that. It was because the music came in and took over a bit. There was an overlap, I would say, but it took over that interest. Before that, I spent most of my free time riding the tram. Many other healthy boys stood there, writing license plates on cars and doing strange things. However, I became interested in trams and categorized them with a good friend, Leif Sundby, who was then known as Leif Larsen, with whom I was in class. We drove around and then kept a note at home for every single tram we discovered. Oh, and our hobby was driving around, seeing if they were signposted from line nine to line 15 because that's what they did every now and then. If you suddenly saw a train of cars broken down, they would take one left over on line 15 and re-signpost it to line n9, and similar actions would be taken. That was our hobby, and through it, I also got to know Copenhagen in a really fantastic way. We cycled around every year; for my birthday, I got a tram network card—my biggest wish each year. It was at the top of my wish list, and I received a network card. You also describe your interest in the sport in your book as a special interest, but it developed a little later in life, when you started doing pokis on DR. There, a participant named Claus Petersen appears. Yes, and what's funny about him was that he came in, and I finally found a mate who was just as interested in rock music and pop music as I was, and with whom I could talk. I always felt a bit alone in the '60s; on the radio, there was only me interested in pop and rock music. I was also the only one who played it and talked about it with SP. I didn't really have anyone to talk to. When I sat with colleagues, some weren't really interested—they actually had other priorities. So, suddenly, I met someone who was really into it with life and soul, just like me. One day, he said to me, 'By the way, I've read some interviews with you,' and we discovered that we shared a different interest. It turned out that, although he was four years younger, he was also hugely interested in trams. I think that was fantastic. We both had two slightly different interests—partly and partly. But many people interested in music took it so seriously that we went into detail, and we did the same with the track. Our shared interests and work also led us to go to the Tram Museum in 1979 to record some sessions with the Lollipops. He was also exceptionally skilled in music, and I hired him to assist me with various programs.By SporvognDK - .
