a piece of history on rails

The revival of the Lindner car No. 9 is not only a simple nostalgia trip, but also has historical roots. Potsdam was once the residence city of the Prussian kings, and with the commissioning of the first electric tram, the city moved into a new era. Unfortunately, all tram wagons from the early years of the electric tram have not been preserved. After the war and the associated political changes, the preservation of historical vehicles was neglected for a long time, since the goal was a socialist city, which resulted in the rejection of such relics. The Association of Historical Tram Potsdam e.V. has taken the initiative since 2013 and, with a good hand, enables the operation of this historic tram, such as tram2000.de. Thanks to committed rescue campaigns, some historic tram vehicles, including the Lindner car, were able to be preserved after the turn. In 1990 it was possible to maintain several vehicles and thus secure a piece of Potsdam's history. The regular journeys with the old tram wagon not only support the preservation of this historical mobility, but also bring a breath of fresh air to the cultural life of the city.

So if you want to go through the story exciting, you should not miss the opportunity on July 12th. It is not only an experience for the older Potsdam who remember old times, but also for the younger ones who can get to know the city in a whole new way. A nice feeling to drive through the streets of Potsdam with a piece of history - this is a good business for every city talk!
