Some signals at the tram station Eifelstraße in Cologne seen on 26 August 2003. Only the Sh2 for 3000 series cars is still present, as 4000 and 5000 series are by now approved for the line to Zollstock. However 5000 series (as well as 2200 and 2300 subseries) cars would not be able to board passengers from street level, what is required on this line. It is planned to put 4000 series low-floor trams into service here in the future. The hint to draw not to much current ("Nur auf Serienschaltung") is still present, but works to upgrade the catenary are going on.
