Lisbon, Traditional Trams On The 'Hilly' Routes, 12, 18, 24, & 28.

Lisbon, Portugal, has 45 'Remodelado' trams operating the 'Hilly' routes, these trams were constructed in 1995/6 with car bodies from the 1930's and new trucks and electrical equipment. This video shows them in action on tram routes 12, 18, 24, & 28.

Thanks for your comments, all the different adverts on the trams are very colourful.

Now you're spoiling us. Those are what I call trams. Is there still one that goes up that very steep hill towards the castle? Thank you very much.😄😄😄😄😄

Yes, route 28 goes near the castle as it goes up to Graça, I think that you would have to get off near the cathedral (Sé), from memory it is still a steep climb up to the castle.

Wonderful video Bob. I never tire of seeing those trams. It’s been on my bucket list for some time to visit Lisbon, but not yet happened.

@@GuyArab Thanks Guy, I hope that you make it to Lisbon, not that there is any danger of it closing or anything, be prepared to wait for a tram though, route 28, the Graça circle, is very busy all the time, and the trams get held up in the traffic, there is timetable but it is is largely a work of fiction.

@@bobhodgestransportDVDs I have heard about the long queue, so I will be prepared.
