First day in service for the Moderus Gamma trams in Woltersdorf today. For the first time throughout its existence, this tram line is served with accessible low-floor trams. The ride is remarkably smooth, and while some tourists from Berlin expressed their disappointment because they came to see the old Gotha trams, most locals seem to be very excited.

Due to the engineering constraints of such a short low-floor vehicle, most of the seats are above high-floor sections on the sides of the vehicle, but there is a step-free corridor along the entire length of the vehicle.

@deluisa Sitzanordnung besser als bei den Gotha-Trams. Dass ich sowas mal erleben würde. 👍

@deluisa are there audio announcements as well? If so, in what languages?

@deluisa Longer Gammas (you can find them in Poznań and Wrocław mostly) also share this kinda bus-like design with most seats on raised sections, Modertrans specializes in 'budget' trams like this - they cut their teeth on modernizations of 105N series trams (the ones without any low-floor section are the Alphas) and then steadily moved onto adding low-floor middle sections (Beta - the exact criterium appears to be that some, but not all entrances are step-free), and now I guess they're pushing the envelope with these.
