OK, but it is still not clear that is Tbilisi now thinking returning tram? if yes, when the tram service will start?

Is there any remains of the previous tram system? Try to post some phtose of the remains.

Ashis Mitra is a bit obsessed with old tram systems and their physical remains. Whenever he reads about an old tramway, he asks if buried rails have been discovered during roadworks.

Choosing a tram designed by CAF has other symbolisms to it. Mainly, it is designed in the Iberia of the west. Additionally, CAF-built trams are used by Tbilisi's sister city of Bilbao.

Tbilisi is not choosing anything right now, a ig possibility that trams will be from Alstom those Citadis, with their rigid stupid bogies.

BUt me and many people don't want that in city authority.

But let's see.

1. What's up with those "modified" Škoda 14Tr (without the middle doors)? Why did they take them out?

2. In the real old tram pics, there are a lot of three section articulated trams, but did I see correctly? Did the middle part had no wheels?

Hybrid 87 was asking why the Škoda 14Tr in Tblisi did not have middle doors. That's what he meant by "Why did they take them [the doors] out?".

ok. but my question was "why"? Weather extremes (for example Škoda 9Tr was made specially for some soviet union cities with 2 doors due to the weather - cold winters)?

Because as much I remember the 14Tr's all have 3 doors when they came out of the factory (excluding the one's for USA).

50 trolleybuses of Skoda 14Tr were made with two doors for Tbilisi and Kiev.

but Tbilisi's trolleys Skoda 14Tr with 3 doors then were remade as 2 doors because lines were small shut down and passengers were very small amount and 3 door was not needed.
