Daugavpils - yes, Yaropolk - the RVZ-6's ...Ref. Daugavpils - yes, Yaropolk - the RVZ-6's seem to only run on weekdays. I was pleased to be able to ride on a few last week. The extensive track relaying was causing severe delays to routes 1 and 3, due to a long bi-directional single-line section, controlled by traffic lights and mobile phone messages. To add to the delays, many trolley poles were becoming de-wired at the temporary cross-over at Poliklinka. There seems to be a great deal of track and overhead work to be done before the new artics can enter service. Can anyone tell me if the entire 3-route system is to be retained and upgraded? <br /><br />Ref.Liepaja - the junction of the old southern terminal at Centralkapi and the new extension seems to have been kept intact. Are there plans to use both terminii once track relaying has been completed? Finally, I was amazed at the complex manoeuvres required to enter/exit the depot, involving reversing onto part of what seems like a long spur line (an old route?) then crossing the mainline at right-angles. For a one-route system it covers everything a tram fan could ask for, except - as you say Robert - a corporate livery instead of the commercial graffiti which is now so universally prevalent.Paul Haywoodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5810004648766820675.post-63502487647000364182013-07-29T21:12:53.835+01:002013-07-29T21:12:53.835+01:00Yaropolk,

Nowadays you can do it easily with Google Earth, but even the old-fashioned way on a paper map should give you this result. It is quite normal that official numbers are inaccurate, although not so often in cities with just one line. Sometimes they add the depot tracks or whatever, although these are not very long in Liepaja anyway.Robert Schwandlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13156288779783738076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5810004648766820675.post-89784817163639679622013-07-29T16:50:30.415+01:002013-07-29T16:50:30.415+01:00RVZ-6 are not going at weekend in Daudavpils.
Ro...RVZ-6 are not going at weekend in Daudavpils. <br /><br />Robert, please, correkt your mistake: The tram line in Liepaya is 8,3 km long with the new part. The 7 km is not correctly now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09965200675658772340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5810004648766820675.post-39843604556863748052013-07-26T17:01:19.069+01:002013-07-26T17:01:19.069+01:00Many thanks, Robert, for your excellent summaries....Many thanks, Robert, for your excellent summaries. I'm visiting the three Latvian systems next week, and had hope to ride the RVZ-6 trams in Daugavpils. You don't mention them in your report. Have they now gone? Hope not, but I'll send you an update in a few weeks.Paul Haywoodnoreply@blogger.com
