Description
Another picture that I took on my trip to Gotha. No. 396 was sold in the early 1990s from Mannheim to Gotha and represents the typical tram of West-Germany of the 1960s. It received a new paint-scheme, new interior and a new pantograph. No. 396 is heading to the stop "Ostbahnhof" (eastern station) and passing a typical East-German city-scene.Related content

A little (late) update.
Today this line still exists but goes through a "roundabout" (It looks more like a go-kart track and the Tram goes right through the middle) andf the house on the corner in the background is occupied by Antifa.

Interessant! Ist es zufall, das das Farbschema fast identisch mit dem von Leipzig ist, oder gibt es eine größere Geschichte dahinter?

Gute Frage. Jedenfalls wurde das Farbschema schon vor Ankunft unserer Düwags eingeführt. Einige Gotha G4 hatten das auch schon. Was zuerste da war, und ob man sich bei Leipzig was abgeschaut hat (oder sogar andersrum?!) weiß ich ehrlichgesagt nicht.
