Excursion with 3060-7047-7064-7093-7162 (28/01/1995)

Brussels

Before the 3060 would be transported to its new owner, it was decided to organize a tour in Brussels with this tram (in the meantime repainted in its Hamburg colours).
No less than 4 additional trams were necessary to transport the candidates and even then, unfortunately, participants had to be refused. Unintentionally, this trip was at the same time a farewell to the four-axle P.C.C. trams.

Place Liedts — Liedtsplein

With such excursions, it is perfectly possible to get off the tram for a while and ride with the next one. This results in an extra photo...

Heizel — Heysel

The tram museum is never shy. With the backup they drove (of course backwards) to the end point Heysel. Of course the tram company was aware and at that time there was no tram on the same track.
Not everyone was able to take this picture: getting out was not evident at all and actually impossible for some.

Avenue des Croix du Feu — Vuurkruisenlaan

Of course it was very difficult for the organizers to find photo locations where several hundred participants could photograph safely and easily.

Tram Museum Woluwe

The first picture is a line-up with the 4 additional trams. 2 are from the museum (7093 and 7047, still in its original livery) and 2 trams from the tram company (7064 and 7162) that were later scrapped. On this picture you can see the 3 colour schemes that these trams carried.
