This is the last thing I expected light rail transit to be used for

[@andrewpalm2103]

I've been an electric transit fan (and a railfan) since I was a young kid in the 1950's, so I really appreciate this video. I found it highly amusing and interesting. Great content, SPR. Cheers from Wisconsin!

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Thank you, that's wonderful to hear! Cheers from Illinois!

[@antoninmarek7229]

Well, as an european, I'm really glad for these competitions, because it showing skills of all european tram drivers and they can to compare their skills between us and other europpeat tram drivers from differend countries. It is really diverse. From my country there are also tram drivers from Prague.

Awesome video and Amazing new intro! It's certainly nicer than the older intro.

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Thank you very much! I agree, the footage in the last intro was pretty old.

[@the3es240]

[@kavemanthewoodbutcher]

This content is why youve won All The Marbles!

[@The_Goldenhammer.]

We need more of this sport!!! Screw racecars. GIVE ME RAIL SPORTS!!! I want to see trains race. I want to see more of this competition.

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Lmao

[@Metra167Productions]

Yeah, new video

[@quillmaurer6563]

While some of these events - such as knocking the ball at the pins - doesn't look all that relevant skills-wise, it sure looks like a lot of fun. I hear about events like this for basically any profession, I'm sure training for them helps to sharpen skills, it's great for publicity, and I'm sure a huge morale boost. Driving the host's trams would make things somewhat unfair, as those who drive those trams or others of the same model would be at a huge advantage over those who drive different types. But as long as they don't make the competition too serious that's not really a problem.

[@KyrilPG]

Yeah but the host city only won once since TRAM-EM exists, so they've managed to make the hardware differences less important.

[@NW-gi1cp]

We should do this but with high speed trains 😂

[@Southern_Plains_Railfan]

Absolutely! Lol
