The Brussels Tram Route 3 - Whole Tramline

The Brussels premetro- and tramline 3 connects the stop Esplanade (on the borders of Neder-Over-Heembeek, Laken / Laeken and Strombeek-Bever) with the stop Churchill in Ukkel/Uccle. The line was temporarily disbanded, but returned in service on 30 June 2008. The colour of the line is lime-green.
Route:
Esplanade - Meise - De Wand - De Wand - Araucaria - Braambosjes - Heembeek - Van Praet - Werkhuizenkaai/Quai des Usines - Mabru - Jules de Trooz - Masui - Thomas - Noordstation/Gare du Nord - Rogier - De Brouckère - Beurs/Bourse - Anneessens - Lemonnier - Zuidstation/Gare du Midi - Hallepoort/Porte de Hal - Sint-Gillis Voorplein/Parvis de Saint-Gilles - Horta - Albert - Berkendaal - Vanderkindere - Churchill.
The line is named 3, after the originally planned metro line 3, which was planned to service most of the current route of tram line 3.
This line was taken out of service for a while. It returned however on 30 June 2008 in a renewed form.
Only the tram lines 3 and 4 remain in the North-South Axis that runs underneath the city centre during the daytime. In the evening, the North-South axis is serviced by tram line 32. Both lines 3 and 4 have a 6-minutes schedule during rush hour and are serviced by the modern low-floor trams (Bombardier T3000 and T4000).
On August 31, 2009 the lines 3 and 4 changed their northern termini. Whereas line 3 used to end at the North station, it now continues all the way to Esplanade, while the line 4 route was shortened to terminate at North Station. Because of this, the very long route of line 4 and the short route of line 3 are now equalized.
Before the line was taken out of service for a while, the line was serviced by both the modern low-floor trams (the T3000 and T4000) as well as the older two-part PCC-trams (T7700 and T7800). After its return in 2008, the line is serviced by the modern low-floor trams only, mostly of the T4000 type.

Looks like a fast and reliable tram network to me! And the city is beautiful.

[@spectremodtrain5936]

Konstantin T brusselian here- it is perhaps the best tram system in the world. There is practically nowhere that you can’t get at least close to by tram/bus/metro

[@nielspemberton9004]

A model light rail network the envy of many towns around the world. And creatively decorated stations and their approaches.

[@barttheanorak]

Thank you for sharing this for posterity - of course it will all be rather different when the heavy metro opens.

[@karevilen]

I remember using that line last summer when a diversion was in place, went from Porte de Hal to Verboekhoven. Really nice line, and the underground section really feels like a metro

[@valtrus901]

Love the upgrade design for the tram, resembling the Luas trams of Dublin, Ireland and it's good to see that it is well-used by the locals, as it is in Dublin. In addition, the underground stations are immaculately kept and maintained, beautifully designed and user-friendly. Nice civic planning. Interesting city view along the way. Thank you for this excellent video in 4k, no less. Much appreciated.

Im from New York City and your trams are sleek modern and attractive. The city is beautiful but one thing western european cities have in common with american ones is graffiti. You dont see much or any graffiti in asian cities for some reason.

[@riccardoattilia8219]

I think it's matter of tradition.. Youngsters in europe and America see graffiti as a form of expression and rebellion, maybe not in Asia. Still there are some nice graffiti spots in Brussels and sometimes the transport company asks graffiti artists to paint some stations with cool designs (Like Meiser station).

[@takeadrive]

Great video ! 👍

[@mf5531]

too much g raffiti in some areas- i ruins the beauty of the landscape. but still a great video! thanks for posting. and hello from the usa.

[@antonin701]

What do the white signs mean? Are they showing the speed limit? If this is the case a speed limit of 27 kmh would be weird. Really cool video by the way, it would be amazing if a driver in Bordeaux would do the same (my city).

[@rlampen6641]

Pas sûr pourquoi ces questions sont en anglais. Quels signaux blancs ? Un minutage ? Sinon, il y a des feux de circulation pour tram avec des barres ou cercles verticaux et horizontaux similaires dans leur fonction aux feux tricolores pour automobilistes.

[@rlampen6641]

Ah, vers 30'04" ? 27 au sol ?

[@antonin701]

@@rlampen6641 en anglais car le titre de la vidéo est en anglais. Je n'aime pas regarder des vidéos avec un titre en anglais et avec des commentaires 100% allemands par exemple, car jsp parler allemand. Pour les timestamps j'ai : 12:26 pour un panneau blanc "40" et 15:37 pour un panneau blanc "27"

[@romain8671]

@@antonin701 Les panneaux blancs avec des nombres inscrits dessus sont bien destinés à indiquer les limitations de vitesse Quand à la raison pour laquelle certaines limitations peuvent sembler bizarre, je n'ai pas d'explication si ce n'est que, peut-etre, lors des tests, la STIB a établi que 27 km/h était la vitesse limite qui permettait un arrêt en douceur dans la limite de la distance entre le panneau et le feu tricolore dans le cas du timestamp 15:37

[@protectorofillinois3]

Brussels is a beautiful city, When I visit this summer, this is the first tram I'm riding on (I personally love long tram rides, as some of them are way too short). This is a stupid question, but @ 1:23 and 2:20, what was the name of those train stops that were bypassed, and are they permanently closed or are they being remodeled?

[@Arne1998]

2:20 is called De wand and is still used, by me everyday! I have no idea about 1:23 though

[@beritangungu5916]

protectorofillinois3 meise

[@albericsaerens7803]

At 1:23 it’s stop « Meise » which is no longer in service due to low patronage and close proximity to Esplanade ;)

[@albericsaerens7803]

At 2:20 you can see the Old transfer platforms of De Wand which are no longer in service since the introduction of T4000 stock on lines 3 and 7 (platforms are too short). Until then trams stopped at both platforms of the stop.

[@pizzasubs]

Now with theser since they run on electricity, if the power happens to go out at the location where they are prestently at, would these just stop and remain where they are until the powere is restored or do tese have something in the way of back-up generators that that they can use to keep them going until the power comes back on????

The power does not go out in Brussels.

Esplenade - close to Atomium. It connect with tram no 7 few stations later.

[@GlodelaniaXrosGames]

There are no ticket machines in the stations, how do you pay the fare?

[@romain8671]

In the underground stations tickets machines are at the upper floor. Usually, premetro stations in Brussels have at least 2 levels under the ground.

[@ringwe]

There is always an idiot driver, like the one at the end of the video, who disregards a tram's priority over cars. What a wanker to put in danger the passengers of both vehicles!

[@YishaiBarr]

Do you know if the underground sections have ATO?

[@gallimead]

So quiet.

[@PlatformONE]

Is this a former train line?

[@Veedock]

According to Wikipedia, the line was originally designed to be metro line, however became part of regular tram's line. There are few tram lines in Brussels that ride underground for a part of it's route. Metro uses another lines and they are separated, however you can change the communication way on some spots.

[@tutoriel1000]

platformone this line and the 4 line (premetro) are becoming metro's is 2018, the stations were already made for it so they could switch from tram to metro in a short period of time
