The 7121 was deliverded on the day the photo was made.
The trams will remain here for a few days at most before being effectively scrapped.

As a result of the Covid-19 measures, larger trams (in this case coupled units) were used on route 12 to ensure social distance.

Route 15, 2123+2121

The tram leaves the loop "Koninklijkelaan". The driver dutifully checks that the second tram follows and does not take the other route: this had already happened there once due to a switch that skipped by itself.

This tram had then been newly renovated, including new doors and a strip to open the doors. The blue diamond alerted passengers to this, namely that they therefore no longer had to rely on the driver to open the doors.
The system proved to be very impractical and was later replaced by a regular button. The blue diamond then disappeared again when all trams were equipped with self-service doors.
