Gent50 years of P.C.C. trams in Ghent (10/07/2021)

Koophandelsplein

In the afternoon, public rides took place. The 01 is not only the oldest and first P.C.C. tram in Ghent, but was also completely restored to its original state of delivery.

The line-up shows the evolution from left to right: on the left is the latest (modernised) version, on the far right (01) the tram in its delivery version, with grey pantograph.
This photo shows perfectly what has happened to these trams over a period of 50 years.

Gent, Sint-Baafsplein

The parade was accompanied by 3 police officers by bicycle and 2 control vehicles of the transport company. Quite soon, the parade was delayed: the calculation was made on the speed of the trams, not of cycling policemen...

Gent,  Van Hool AG 280T  # 08 

Stelplaats (depot) Gentbrugge

Ghent has never been interested in museum vehicles, nor does it have the space to do so. Coincidences lead to possibilities, which will not soon reappear. Only the tram (01) is still in Ghent (now: 2020).
The indication on the tram (route 30) never existed in reality: the line was withdrawn when the P.C.C.'s entered into service, but the route was still on the indication of the first trams.
The choice was logical: only route 3 existed on the trolleybus.

Eindhalte (endstation) Moscou
Route 40

К/ст "Москва". Именно в этом некогда окраинном районе Гента в 1813 г. квартировались русские офицеры. Снимок исторический. На момент съёмки это был единственный трамвайный круг города. К приходу низкопольников, круг будет перестроен в обыкновенный тупик. Вагон 01 в последствии будет оставлен в качестве музейного — представлять эпоху американских вагонов РСС (лат.) в Генте
