Don’t think I’ve seen anything like that ever on the wires in Melbourne.
Here's the Balaclava grand union in Melbourne. Our poles are nicer ;)

The Polish community in Adelaide thanks you.

Dziękuję....

In case anyone is wondering, "Nie ma sprawy!" is Polish for "¡De nada!"

As a Czech speaker, Polish is just fun to me. They're so close but there's many false friends (same word different/slightly different meaning). When I read that it looks something like "it's not news" to me.

My favourite is the word sklep which I think in Polish means shop? But in Czech it means cellar (like for wine). Me and my Moravian wife just joke it's because that's the only thing Poles are going to buy in a shop anyway.

Pesa Twist je tramvaj.
Pesa Twist je tramwaj. (Nesmysl ale...).

Pesa Twist jest bezcenna tramwaj.
Pesa Twist je bezcenná tramvaj.

Anyway, here are my two recommendations for Adelaide.

Ale, bydlíme v Brně. Tady neřikáme tramvaj. Je ta šalina :)

That second pic is both a tramvaj and a šalina. I have ridden that particular model in Prague, Brno and Olomouc. They're a pretty smooth ride considering the surfaces they traverse. Also can hardly hear them from the outside.

The tram to the right in that pic is a high floor. It's like climbing Mt Everest getting in those. Pretty much if you're male and between 18 and 50 it's your job to carry the prams and babičkas on and off (no exaggeration).

"Šalina" je slovo z Němčiny " Elektrische Linie", zdá se mi.

I have looked to see if I have any interior shots. The one I thought that was were very nice low floors. I can see my filing system is not perfect.

Would that be the interior of the pesa swing? I think I only remember riding one when I was in Gdansk to visit friends last year. But it doesn't look like the Škoda which among a host of differences don't have material coverings on the seats (they're wooden, quite shmick). The Škodas are great but have their flaws. They're too narrow in the middle to pass between cars comfortably and I learned from experience not to try to squeeze past a grumpy Pražák on the evening commute otherwise you'll cop a mouthful.

Great pictures Norman . How do you manage to post so many pictures at the same time I can only post 3 at the most. Adapun beberapa laporan di atas, saya tidak bisa memahaminya

The photos are hosted on my OneDrive account instead of an attachment, and then embedded into the post.
