/PHOTO, VIDEO/ The historic set, which consists of a motor car from 1915 manufactured by the Ringhoffer company and a towing car from the same company from 1930, carried passengers for the first time on the first of May. The transport company of the cities of Liberec and Jablonec nad Nisou acquired it for a year from the Prague transport company, because in the Prague Public Transport Museum in Střešovice they started the construction of new exhibition halls for museum buses and commercial vehicles, which limited the space and traffic for trams from the exhibition.

For the first time, the tram set plied the Liberec tracks on the national holiday of May 1. Those who missed the ride need not regret it. The tram will thus go into service on public holidays for traditional festive and historical rides, the nearest one will take place on May 8.

Tourists will also enjoy the tram, because during the summer holidays those interested will be able to ride it every holiday Saturday. The rides will be organized by Boveraclub with the support of the Liberec Region. The transport company plans to attractively include Prague’s historic trams in the program of the upcoming Open Day, which will take place on September 14.
