Stuttgart has done what they could to separate trams from auto traffic, not easy in an old city. The system itself is old, but the stations are clean and bright. It seems well patronized. How I wish we had such public transport in the US!
I heard a visitor say that what surprised them most in Stuttgart was "car-driving as a three-dimensional experience". The city is as hilly as San Francisco, with a 330 meter (1000 foot) change in altitude within the city limits.
@15:40 now that Staatsgalerie has been relocated a little bit east, actually closer to the Planetarium, as a result of Stuttgart21, this is a nice view of what Staatsgalerie used to look like before the demolition and reconstruction. For example, @16:09 shows the direct branch towards the Hbf, which has since been demolished, as it was interfering with the south tunnel's construction sections "BA21", "BA22" and "BA23". Rathaus is the only other station that was like Staatsgalerie, with an extra outer track. They say that in December 2023, the U14 connection from Hbf and Staatsgalerie should be reestablished, and the outer track towards Mineralbäder should have electrification once that line is put in full service again.
It's the ventilation of the two street tunnels you can see at 10:35 (left and right of the tram track). The ventilation shafts 100 m away on the right sight might be of the railway tunnel...
It was built for smaller U-Bahn trains back in the 60s. But since around 20 years they have the new, bigger trains so they only kept some of the old tracks for special events Edit: You can see one of the old trains at 12:00
It's standard gauge (1435 mm, typical for railway trains, but an underground or tram network may have it as well) and meter gauge (typical for trams) in one place.
Chłonę. Też mnie ciekawił tor przystosowany do wąskich składów. Jak to funkcjonowało w praktyce? Skrajnia musiałaby być szersza z prawej… Gdyby tam puścić naszą 105-kę, i gdyby ta 105-ka mieściła się (pomijam wysokość peronów) idealnie w peron, to gdyby puścić tam 805-kę, przydzwoniłaby radośnie w peron prawą burtą…
At 4:50 both tracks run in parallel, something I have never seen. AMAZING I must say. But at 8:48 the track from left is connected, the train should topple. But it passes smoothly. What trick the driver uses? Good video otherwise, no fault of yours for whatever construction errors from the Metro :-)
The third rail is a leftover from the Times when the network was converted from 1000mm gauge to regular 1435mm. Now that all lines run on 1435mm the third rails are obsolete, but some are kept for historic trains.
The gauge now is 1435 mm. The old tram system had a gauge of 1000 mm. From 1986 to 2007 almost all tracks were build with two gauges to support old and new trams. Nowadays there are only two lines with 1000 mm left for historical traffic. The two lines meet at 10:03 and 10:38 at "Mercedesstraße". The 1000 mm gauge will be removed with every superstructure renewering, so there are a lot of remains left.
(@@blaukrautbrautkleid7760 : That' another place.) That is a "Gleisverschlingung" = "frog gauntlet track". It is cheaper and more robust than switches. Many tram vehicles are unidirectional (upon other limitations) and can't use the flexibility that switches provide to railway operation.
Die Weiche ist nicht verriegelt und wird aufgefahren, es muss nichts angesteuert werden. Das ist bei Straßenbahnen völlig normal, aber diese fahren auf Weichen (meistens) sehr langsam. Bei der Eisenbahn gibt es das sehr selten, in Deutschland bei Rückfallweichen.
Być może już dodałeś (jeżeli tak proszę o link) ale mam pytanie czy będzie też video z przejazdu zabytkową linią (ta 1000 mm) ? Czy jest jakaś część trasy obsługiwana wyłącznie taborem 1000mm ?
Stuttgart przechodził z rozstawu 1000 mm na 1435 mm. Stosowano podwójny rozstaw szyn. Obecnie dodatkowe szyny do rozstawu 1000 mm są demontowane, po za trasą pozostawioną do obsługi historycznym taborem.
А второй рельс слева - это для трамваев других размеров, более узких? Узкая колея - это из прошлого или из настоящего? Und die zweite schiene Links - ist das für Straßenbahnen anderer Größen, schmaler? Ist die schmale Spur aus der Vergangenheit oder aus der Gegenwart?
"A" means "Anforderung" engl. "request". it is needed if the signal is covering a crossing. If the "A" appears, the train is recognized by local interlocking and it will switch for the train.
@@Travlar Also remember, this signal only appears in tram and subway systems. Different systems in Germany have different regulations. Trams and subways are running with the BOStrab (Regulation of building and operating trams) and "normal" trains and railroads are operating with the EBO (Regulation of building and operating trains). These systems have different requirements for almost everything, even the signals.
@@blaukrautbrautkleid7760 Thank you. I believe our streetcars and trams also run under different regulations than Class 1 railroads here in the US. Thank you for the added comments. It makes sense now.
@@EliWCoyote The minimum radius for the trams in Stuttgart is 50 m. "BÜ" is a short form of "Bahnübergang" engl. "crossing". If the white signal is blinking, the local interlocking is activated and the trains can pass the crossing.
John Richardson Until 2007, there werde Trams with a track width of 1000m instead of the normally used 1435mm. And because of this, there is a third Rail in middle of the Track.

Man sieht's ja bei 12:00: da kommt so eine historische Bahn auf der Meterspur entgegen. Listen to the passenger talk. Child: "Look, there comes an old one" - father/man: "True that!"
According to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuttgart_Stadtbahn, the entire network used to be metre gauge. Most of it was rebuilt with mixed gauge in the 80s so that both old and new trams could be used, but it looks like the metre gauge is being gradually removed today, as there are sections where only bits of it remains.
Stuttgarcki tabor? Bo nasze są bankowo takie same na 1000 jak ja 1435. Ale w sumie - dobra, prawa skrajnia to jedno, a co z lewą? Znaczy, przed wprowadzeniem 1435 mm z pewnością tramwaje nie jeździły tak daleko od siebie, skrajnia wewnętrzna między torami musiała być węższa… Ciekaw jestem technicznej strony tego całego przejścia z 1000 na 1435, zwłaszcza początków.

As of December 2017: 13 regular lines [daily service] (Lines U1 - U9, U12 - U15 and U19) 1 rack railway [daily service] (Line 10) 1 funicular railway [daily service] (Line 20) 1 special line [on seasonal basis, for example during Cannstatter Wasen] (Line U11) In the near future there's going to be a new rush-our line (U16) and a second special line (U17)
Im Prinzip ist die Kombination aus Straßenbahn und U-Bahn eine gute Idee. In Stuttgart hat man aber wohl auch die Tunnelstrecken nach Straßenbahn-Standard gebaut (enge Kurvenradien, niedrige Fahrgeschwindigkeit) so dass die Vorteile der Tunnelstrecken nicht voll ausgeschöpft werden. Eigentlich ist es möglich, mit 80 km/h abzüglich Beschleunigung und Abbremsen ca. 1 Kilometer pro Minute zurückzulegen.
Die Tunnel stammen noch aus der Zeit wo Stuttgart eine Meterspurstraßenbahn hatte. Sie sind dehalb eigentlich für Straßenbahnen konzipiert worden. Auf neueren Tunnelstecken wie z.B.: U15 Zuffenhausen wir wesentlich schneller gefahren.
В Санкт-Петербурге, например, трамваи еще медленнее ходят (во всяком случае, известные мне маршруты). И вообще, какая маневренность может быть у ж/д техники?
That type of public transport is very nice, but why is needed so low speed limit? Word connection Stadtbahn means City Rail, so the average travel speed should be higher ( at least in tunnel sections) than normal tram network, not to mention too short distances between stations. Edit: For comparison. Here in Czech Republic at north of the country between two cities, Liberec and Jablonec n. Nisou is single-railed, narrow gauge interurban tram line, most often operated with trains of two coupled old, modernised Tatra T2 trams and the average travel speed on it is the same, if not higher. ua-cam.com/video/_rB6uu3QRX4/v-deo.html ( play it from 9th minute if you want to skip beautiful city part 😉😁) But don't consider my comment as hate please and tell me if i missing something.

What are those sort of artificial hill-like things at 11:00? Are they a sort of ventilation shafts or underground bunkers or something?

It's amazing to see other country's transportation
At 8:50, the switch looks set against the train. How does this work? Is it a spring switch?
Yes. In tram systems it is often used.
*whoa! thanks for the ride* 😊
Nice video dude (greeting from Indonesia)
What is the 3rd rail used for at certain parts of the track?
It was built for smaller U-Bahn trains back in the 60s. But since around 20 years they have the new, bigger trains so they only kept some of the old tracks for special events
Edit: You can see one of the old trains at 12:00

Vielan dank fur schone spazierung auf U2 mein Uban wen war ich in Deutschland. Meinar Bahnhoff Daimler Platz war. Ich Hoffe Senhsucht.
Some of the switches seem closed but the tram still makes it through? I guess it switches once it gets really close?
These switches are not locked, so they can be pushed open. Speed limit is probably 15 km/h.
Okay, thanks for clarifying that. It all makes sense now.
Chłonę.

It may have switched just in time. When a bit of track goes out of frame, there are still a few meters left before the wheels reach that point
@@borstenpinsel Thanks. This "frame mystery" is something new for me too. Next time, I will keep this in mind.
Wow extreme rail track & have two tipe rail in one track ?!
The third rail is a leftover from the Times when the network was converted from 1000mm gauge to regular 1435mm. Now that all lines run on 1435mm the third rails are obsolete, but some are kept for historic trains.
Lots of the old narrow gauge rail left
Well done! Thank you. Gauge?
4:48 What is thatrack section called where tracks are within each other?
I believe several lines share the route, but not the rails, so you don't need a rail switch. Another curious point at 10:03 a trailing-point.
The gauge now is 1435 mm. The old tram system had a gauge of 1000 mm. From 1986 to 2007 almost all tracks were build with two gauges to support old and new trams. Nowadays there are only two lines with 1000 mm left for historical traffic. The two lines meet at 10:03 and 10:38 at "Mercedesstraße".

That is a "Gleisverschlingung" = "frog gauntlet track". It is cheaper and more robust than switches. Many tram vehicles are unidirectional (upon other limitations) and can't use the flexibility that switches provide to railway operation.
Heritage trains run on select lines with the meter gauge. Can be seen at 12:00
Road signs are similar to Japan!

Tabor na 1000 mm był węższy 2,2 m.
Sind teilweise auf manchen Strecken noch die alten Bahnen unterwegs oder liegen die Gleise mit der alten Spurbreite nach dem Zufallsprinzip boch rum?
Auf manchen strecken fährt noch die historische Bahn des Straßenbahnmuseums. Diese hat noch die alte Spurweite...
wow, look at that rail slope.

Hi niklas
Très chouette pour visiter la ville, en étant le conducteur du métro. 👍🚇

А второй рельс слева - это для трамваев других размеров, более узких?
Узкая колея - это из прошлого или из настоящего?
Und die zweite schiene Links - ist das für Straßenbahnen anderer Größen, schmaler?
Ist die schmale Spur aus der Vergangenheit oder aus der Gegenwart?
U2 line? I was expecting Bono to sing. :)
OBRIGADO PELA CARONA!
Чисто аккуратно, где это, в Германии
Why is there a third rail?
Stuttgart changed trams from narrow gauge to 1435 mm. Trams 1000 mm and 1435 mm rode for many years.
esbek2 oh ok ..... thnx 🙌
Can be seen at 12:00. Heritage trains run on the narrow gauge up to this day.
