- The tram system of Riga (Rīgas Tramvajs) has had a troubled decade, to say the least. Various scandals and poor management saw the system facing quite some setbacks, but it seems as if better days have arrived. All kinds of work are happening to make this system fit for the future.
This video is the 18th episode of the series Urban Transport, with full-on descriptions of various urban public transport networks (for now in Europe).
If you would like to see the video about the tram system of Latvia's 2nd largest city (Daugavpils), click the link below: • Trams work in small ci...

Hi there! Getting ever closer to the goal of hitting 1000 subscribers. It would really help me if you subscribe to my channel, ensuring I can keep making videos like these for years to come :)
Great stuff. Never been to the Baltic countries and would like to visit once Rail Baltica is finished.
Thank you! Yes, you should check it out!😁
I hope you can make a video about the Winterthur and Zürich trolleybus system soonies. :)
One day :) Will have to see where it will fit in my agenda 😁
Lovely video! The 5 would have to be one of my favourite tram routes in Riga
Thank you! 😁
Great work! 🎉
Thank you! 😁
Tarta T3 also on 7 tram route.
Your videos about Trams and the cities they run in are A1 !
Are you going to take on the Riga Trollybus system ?
Thank you!😁😁
Riga’s Trolleybus system will appear on my channel either later in 2023 or early 2024😁
@@realdronthego Glad to hear that .. 😊
How abouts Tallinn one. It's dying, not much time left. Rigas is far superior...
Is there a closing date announced?
Fantastic! I was there 2 weeks ago a video on my channel will show up in a month or so 😅❤
Nice!😁
Line 10 will not be eliminated, it will be moved from Bauskas Street on Lucavsala.
As I described, it will be redirected to Ziepniekkalns. But it is all in the planning stages, I guess we will have to wait and see :)
@@realdronthego I know that line in Ziepniekkalns is in the planning stage, but line in Bišumuiža is not going to disappear, it will be moved to Lucavsala and prolonged to Kekava, but this plan is for very far future. Yes, You are right we just have to wait and see what will happen.
What are the differences between the T6B5, T6B5SU and the T3MR?
Most likely, this comes from particular modifications. “SU” are modified for the former Soviet Union, while the T3MRs seemed to have a different modification. But they all belong to the overarching model - T6B5
T6B5R(aka T3MR) have a different engine, SCR power controllers and cab compared to T6B5(or T3M)
I don’t believe in Rail Baltic. It was a great idea but I think it was ruined.
The only thing we can do is wait and see😅
