In the 1980s, many cities ordered T6A2 trams from CKD, the successor of the widespread T4D type. Dresden had only four power cars and two trailers, then decided to order low-floor trams instead. One three-car train remained in its original colours, the other was rebuilt for sightseeing tours (with tinted windows and a sound system), but all are out of service since 2000. This car of the sightseeing train was preserved and received a different inscription, advertising for the tram museum (the others are for sale). 2001-05-12. Photo: tobias b köhler
