#Directory: /pix/at/trams/Linz/Cityrunner/001 001 Bombardier City Runner in Landstrasse heading for Hauptplatz.

Number 1 was the first of the new fleet of trams that are replacing all the previous trams in Linz. This tram is
part of the Flexity Outlook family of articulated trams made by Bombardier. The designs are customised
heavily to suit the needs of the customer but fall into two distinct sub-categories with dramatically different
appearances.

The Eurotram’s modern design makes it look almost like a train than a tram, and has large windows along its
entire length. The Cityrunner is the more common version of the Flexity Outlook with its styling following a
more traditional tram design.
