Budapest has an extensive system of trams lines numbered between 1 and 69 with gaps due to line closings over the years.
The lines are standard gauge. UV2 cars
(3250-3349) were built by Ganz in Hungary between 1957 & 1958 as
single-ended cars riding on 2 4-wheel
trucks, they have seating for 22 and a top speed of 60 km/h, 37 mph. They are
powered by 4 electric motors having a combined rating of 148 kW, 198 hp and draw
600 volts from the overhead.
Ganz UV2 car 3258 heads a northbound 19 service along the west bank of the Danube just south of the Chain Bridge on Wednesday May 14th, 2003. |
