Tatra T3a trams usually consist of 1 or 2 cars. This one is in Jugla for driver training.
This one is on the twice-per-hour line 2.
Tram on line 10 with the new Light palace in the background. This tram line has stayed unchanged for 100 years and even has it's own song.
Tatra T6B5 have recently been refurbished and some have received a new livery.

^^ I have been to Lviv, Ukraine and it's a not a drab Soviet looking place as you might think but a typical central european city. Is that the Opera on the 3rd photo ?
Liepāja, Latvia
Opened in 1899 it is the oldest tram system in the Baltics. In late 1970ies it was reduced to only one line. But that line was extended to length of 15 km in 2013, and there are plans for a second line that would be built when the city will get money to build a viaduct over the railway station. It is also the only public transport network in the country with GPS so that you can see the vehicle locations on a map in real time. Tram ticket costs 57 euro cents.
KT4SU at the bus and railway station. There is a passenger train only 2 times per week.
KT4D at the new extension terminus "Mirdzas Ķempes iela"
