Gent, Recollettenbrug

I thought the tram was beautiful enough to photograph. The woman chose a different theme... and took a picture of the photographer: each one has his hobby and interests...

Gent, Recollettenbrug

This tram shows the situation in the early 1990s. In anticipation of the repaint in the new colours of De Lijn, the old livery was kept and the old emblems were covered.
The 26 normally stays at the coast and was brought to Ghent for this parade.

Gent, Kleine Vismarkt

In the entrance gate, you can see a horse that is apparently watching the parade with interest...

Gent, Sint-Baafsplein

A surprise was the transfer of the 26 from the coastline. Of course, this vehicle fitted perfectly into the theme.

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.

Sint-Baafsplein

This tram is the most recent museum tram. In Ghent, there are still some of these trams as a strategic reserve, but they have not been used for several years. In Antwerp, they will theoretically be used again when Covid-19 is over. Or maybe never again. The future will tell.
