Tram Driver's Eye View - Prague (Czech Republic) - Tatra T3 Coupé - City Tram Tour & Museum Visit 4K

In this video we travel over the new extension to Slivenec where we see complete new towns/suburbs under construction. Clearly the city is putting other city's to shame with this policy of putting public transport at the centre of planning for the future. Prague's tram network is impressive.
We ride a tram with a “Wow” factor normally reserved for iconic sports cars, the Tatra T3 Coupé turns heads in a city where trams both modern and traditional are a common sight. The T3 tram has been an integral part of the Prague cityscape for over half a century and Prague Public Transit Co got together with Studio Anna Marešová to create a sightseeing tram that celebrated the T3 in Prague, the result of this collaboration was the stunning T3 Coupé, combining the very best of sixties design with a contemporary, stylish all white interior.
Prague's first horse drawn tram line was opened in 1875, and the first electric tram ran in 1891. Today’s network is over 150 kms and it is served by a sizeable fleet of in excess of 882 tram vehicles. This video starts at Florenc / Těšnov with trip to Slivenec over the extension opened in 2003 between Hlubočepy and Sídliště Barrandov followed by a run over the latest extension to Slivenec. After a short break at Slivenec we board the tram for a run back through the city to the tram museum and depot at Střešovice where we take a look around before finally retiring to the station pub at Praha-Braník to watch first generation “Goggles” diesel locomotives in action
