Vienna trams 1983 Strassenbahn Wien

Vienna's famous trams but also the Stadtbahn, U-Bahn and doubledecker buses in 1983. Die bekannten Strassenbahnen (2-Achser, 4-Acher, Nachläufer usw.) in Wien aber auch Stadtbahn, U-Bahn und Doppeldecker Büsse.

der Geruch von den geölten Holzböden in den alten Stadtbahn- und Strassenbahngarnituren🤩

Das sind wunderschöne historische Aufnahmen der Straßenbahnen meiner Heimatstadt. Danke.

[@michaelkaiser9144]

Great video :-) Brings back a lot of childhood memories ... I love 7:14 where it says "Schaffnerlos" on the back of the tram, indicating that there is no extra conductor in the waggon like there used to be up to the 70ies. I didn´t know that they started replacing the old waggons on the Stadtbahn already in 1983 ...

[@stevenr2463]

Very nice video, thank you! I live in Vienna since the 70s. You still see some of those trams although most have gradually been replaced by ultra low floor by now. And the U-Bahn (underground) has been massively extended.

[@transport4616]

Hi there, thanks for your comments! Maybe one day I'll make it back to Vienna...

[@xxdomixx1085]

I read that the old trams are almost only used today for the city center because of the athmosphere?

[@jeromebano1125]

Good evening thank you for uploading this video ad it brings back old memories of Vienna as I am half Austrian the trams themselves may be very old & outdated but love the old wooden seats as I well know that they still operate on the U6 on the old Stattbahn, still compared to the new trams which also operate in Vienna to this present day.

[@transport4616]

Thanks for your comments. Vienna remains one of my favourite cities!

[@tomasz4705]

On of the trams in the video may be still in use in Cracow, Poland.

[@eapus01]

Die alte Stadtbahn (heute U6) auf der Gürtellinie ab min 4:29. Man beachte den Linksverkehr! (Galt in Wien bis 1938)

[@originaldeftom]

Die Franz Josephs Bahn und ihre gesamte Strecke hat bis dato Linksverkehr.

[@dpsdps01]

Not a lot has changed since then - the city is less grey, but the insane traffic on the ring still persists.

[@Labroidas]

Yes, as it should because that's exactly the reason why the ring was built, as one of the major traffic arteries of the city. If there is traffic flowing through there, it means that the city is alive and well ^^ doesn't matter what kind of traffic it is, horse carriages, cars, or maybe something else in the future.

[@dpsdps01]

@@Labroidas I strongly disagree. This is why the Lastenstraße was built, going parallel to the Ring. The Ring was built as a promenade to see and be seen, with many great buildings alongside. It only became the traffic hell it is today in the 50s and 60s.

[@Labroidas]

@@dpsdps01 Ok you're right, I looked into it and I think I remembered something I read somewhere wrong, thanks for the correction. But at least the Stephansplatz and Kärnterstraße are not motor traffic routes anymore, that would be a nightmare. I think it's preferable to have the current configuration with all the traffic flowing around the 1. Bezirk to keep the center calm and peaceful. It's just a fact that almost 2 million people need to get to and from work every day, and that our needs are different from the ones in the early 1900s. I think the solutions they found to solve the traffic problems in the 60s, 70s and 80s are for the most part pretty good to be honest, keeping most of our historic streets intact, especially compared to other cities like London we've had comparatively little destruction.

Gar nicht so lange her.. War damals schon einiges nicht in Ordnung. Aber heute. Lebenswärteste Stadt.. Für "Touristen".

[@alois7951]

Nothing has changed since than. Except the metro lines grow bigger. U3 on the Mariahilferstraße and the formal Stadtbahn, U6 from Spittelau to Floridsdorf and Meidling to Siebenhirten.

[@grundgesetzart.1463]

U1 extended, U2 extended, U5 being newly built....a LOT has changed, mate. Cheers!

[@rafomic4210]

Now there are new modern Flexity Trams and U5 Metro will come. And U3 on Mariahilferstraße will become a new U2 Station.

[@martin05111981]

Very, very nice video! Brings back a lot of memories! And very professional made! But there is something I want to correct: the red and yellow Stadtbahn-cars at minute 03:20 are not from 1925, they are from 1954!

[@samanli-tw3id]

Those 1954 stock were actually the original 1925 stock rebuilt.

[@transport4616]

Thanks ! By the way, the commentary is also the original from 1983 - a much younger me :)

[@Ragnar8504]

@@samanli-tw3id Well, yes and no. The 1954 stock were essentially new cars using a few select bits of the 1925 stock, mainly motors, two steel beams from the body frame and the windows. The trucks, the car bodies and the pneumatic braking systems were new.

[@user-yc9wk3om1e]

At this time: "Wiener Stadtwerke Verkehrsbetriebe". Since aprx.: 1999 Wiener Stadtwerke Holding AG First/bevor, it was an institution, people knew, they can rely - as well for people to have transport as for employment. Everybody told, when you got a job there, don´t leave. Nowadays the average working-period is 1-3 years. And if you use the public transport, you have to be afraid/be aware of troubles/grousing (dirt and infection also). My time with this work was 3 years. And that was in de 90s (second half). Last year an entrepreneur told me "AG´s" (the corporate form) is mainly to make profit. To generate money for external people. The Wiener Stadtwerke Verkehrsbetriebe were determined for the people (residents and visitors alike) - to have the opportunity to be transported and to have jobs. Especially after WW2. And they made a gambling hall out of it.

[@transport4616]

And here in Montpellier, starting now, all people who live here permanently here can get a card for FREE transport!

[@mistofoles]

@4:57 - Interesting...What was that long handled lever for and why was it held in place with a strap ?

[@transport4616]

I believe it's the parking handbrake although it didn't seem to be used at Stadtbahn stations when in public service - that could explain why the strap holds it out of the way. I would image it would be used to park in the depot. Perhaps a Vienna expert can help?

[@mistofoles]

Trams from the 1950s were still operating in the 1980s ? :O

[@transport4616]

indeed they were!

There are heaters under some seats. If you happen to sit on those seats , it will cook you bums.

4:20 - Weiß jemand, warum da ein 2er auf der Jörgerstraße gefahren ist? Does anybody know why line 2 was on the Jörgerstr. then?

[@bernardhossmoto]

Ja, für einige Jahre war der 43er der 2er, hat für mich am Schulweg oft Verzögerung bedeutet, weil auf der langen Strecke immer wieder was passierte. Heute fährt der 2er die J Wagen Strecke und hat beim Parlament eine Kurzanbindung, falls am Ring eine Demo oder anderes ist.
