Some views of trams in Berlin, as seen in April 1990
This video features two tram rides on different types of tram plus trams + closed U-Bahn stations, and more.
The closed stations include Oranienburger Tor & Nordbahnhof on line U6, the latter being where for a brief moment we hear a West Berlin U-Bahn train travelling under an East Berlin street (@ 1' 25")
A more modern view of Oranienburger Tor station (looking in the opposite direction) can be seen here...

It is interesting to watch progres of Berlin transport. They had bus lane on tram track in 1990 but preference for trams on intersections wasn´t working. Very interesting video...

The location where the trams travel almost under the U-Bahn viaduct the streets were full of pavement cafes and there were busy suburban shops & malls. But I was I was disappointed to see the lack of central island loading at the tram stop. Instead passengers still walk out in front of 3 lanes of (nowadays very busy) car traffic. The W Berlin historical tram has been replaced with a reopened U-Bahn. Simon

@citytransportinfo That would then have been a really exciting journey! I did it for the first time in October 1992 but by then everything was under new management!

@CitytransportInfoplus 16 лет назад

Yes! I was there in 2005 - I thought it was a different place!! Simon

@dddaviddd01 14 лет назад

Amazing. I lived in Berlin for one year ( 2008 ) and cant recognize some places... The last stop on that ( also last stop in the video ) U-bahn railway was used for a tram?

@CitytransportInfoplus 15 лет назад

Thanks. Simon

@TruckerSF Die historische Straßenbahn pendelte zwischen Nollendorfplatz und Bülowstr und hier war die Bahn gerade auf der fahrt nach Bülowstr zu sehen. Die M-Bahn führ erst ab Gleisdreieck, so dass die U2-Trasse hinter Bülowstr. im Dornröschenschlaf lag.

thankyou for posting,i went through germany on a motorcycle staying in various places and coudnt believe how parts of the east look,trabants and old looking buildings.a taxi driver said they prefered things before the wall came down though which i couldnt understand at the time,but i guess its all the tax;s and living costs now.but hope to go back this year and revisit berlin leipzig and chemnitz and colditz.a great country

@CitytransportInfoplus 17 лет назад

I visited these locations in former E Berlin in 2005, and they were thriving city streets; still with trams and no different to anywhere else in Germany that still has trams.

@LomLom1975 17 лет назад

Thank you for this great video!!! I always like to see old movies of my most favorite town!!

@KRAFTWERK2K6 15 лет назад

7:49 i'm not sure but that station looks like Station Bühlowstraße because the church in the background looks familiar. So does the Comerzbank building on the left (the huge dark-grey one) Today the U-Bahn is driving on that lane. Wonderful and precious scenes of a Berlin that doesn't look like that anymore and only excists in our memories.

I remember the Turkish Bazar on Bülowstraße

@dronespace Hello, thanks for your comments - I'm pleased that you found my films to be of interest. Regards Simon

I was in Berlin last October. The Eastern side of the city was still quite shabby even after 22 years from the opening of the borders.

@CitytransportInfoplus 15 лет назад

Thanks for telling me. My website is down - I do not know why - so I've complained to the web hosting people. Hopefully it will be back online soon. Simon

A wunderful video! Thanks for uploading! 5* ;-) Greeting TN

@a01arta 13 лет назад

Nice videos of Berlin, thank you for them!

@VanlifewithAlan 13 лет назад

That brought back memories!

@CitytransportInfoplus 17 лет назад

Do you mean the West Berlin tourist tram? I do not know the exact dates but think it was between 1972 and 1991. But that is a guess. Simon

@emil250 15 лет назад

Very interesting ! Today it looks nostalgic, but it was not funny to live there ! Many people think it was like living in a romantic museum, but that was all-time reality with no change to break out.

@Hickmaann90 13 лет назад

I love the Tatra-Cars

@VanlifewithAlan 13 лет назад

@citytransportinfo Yes I appreciate that. You cannot 'feel' it the same! A pity not to have seen Berlin as it was then!

@mattpbent 16 лет назад

cool ! lovely fottage

@CitytransportInfoplus 13 лет назад

@dronespace Yes, well I bought my first camcorder in December 1989, and then started filming! Alas it was already too late for some things (which I'd filmed in super 8) but expecting many changes to start happening I went to Berlin as soon as the spring arrived. Simon

@panjacek6674 14 лет назад

Where is it? The intersection with trams looks like Chausestr. / Invaliden but it's so different. Where is the elevated tram going? Is it today's U2?

@CitytransportInfoplus 13 лет назад

@alanheath Yes, a lot of people find these films to be nostalgic. But its different for me, as I only ever visited Berlin after the opening of the wall in 1989.

@laribum 16 лет назад

@6000mikesch 4 года назад

das ist doch nicht Hackescher Markt, das ist doch Friedrichsstr. , links vor der Brücke ist der Tränenpalast, rechts hinter mir wäre rechts ein Stück weiter der Friedrichstadtpalast, bin doch da immer in Strab eingestiegen, die von der Schleife vom Pergamon Museum kam? bin ich jetzt total kirre, hab vorher Tram Berlin 2020 angesehen, ich kenn da ja nischt mehr...

@TopGearrules 11 лет назад

Berlin is such a cool city!

@CitytransportInfoplus 13 лет назад

@alanheath Alan, I was going to drive to Moscow for the 1980 Olympics, travelling through Berlin and Warsaw and also taking some religious items to distribute to local people, but the boycott saw that trip being cancelled. Other than that I was not confident to travel behind the 'Iron Curtain'. Simon

@leilocasportuguesa 17 лет назад

i just want to see it by my self!!

@Vitus-Cerasus 13 лет назад

Do you know that the depart signal from this video was stolen by Train Team Berlin who used it for one of their Add-Ons called "Straßenbahn Berlin-Köpenick" for the Microsoft Train Simulator?

@CitytransportInfoplus 17 лет назад

send me a link to them. Do you have any Israeli railway videos too? Even the Haifa Carmelite? (underground funicular) Simon

@CitytransportInfoplus 15 лет назад

@villy27 17 лет назад

Großartig! Straßenbahntechnisch könnte man sich die DDR ja fast zurückwünschen... Wann fuhr denn die Straba auf der Hochbahnstrecke?

@stefants3986 6 лет назад

Das war in Westberlin.

@telekino5 12 лет назад

Are you sure, you were in the former East Berlin? Because in general the houses in the Eastern side are now freshly renovated and the houses in West Berlin, especially near to the former border, are in a bad condition. It happens a lot, that tourists mix up the two parts of Berlin and believe they have to be in east Berlin, only because they see shabby houses. West Berlin is full of ugly apartement houses build in the 70s and 80s.

@CitytransportInfoplus 17 лет назад

eh?

@CitytransportInfoplus 17 лет назад

Thanks everyone, I am pleased that you found the video to be of interest. I am sorry to read that Berlin suffers from the 'hoddie/yob' culture. I hate that too. I wish something could be done to to make people behave with responsibility. The 'western' nations seem to be like a fruit which is going bad. It is so sad. I am not watching the new 'Simpsons' film (movie in American English) as Bart Simpson is part of 'the problem' Simon

@gasaholic47 17 лет назад

I am curious as to how this section of Berlin looks today. From this video, it seemed to be a drab, lifeless entity at the time. (I am assuming this is the leftover from Communist rule at the time.) Oh, and Bart Simpson contributes to the hoodie/yob culture? Please, give me a break. It existed long before Bart hit your tv screen.

@CitytransportInfoplus 17 лет назад

btw, re: Bart the Brat, I hate him because at one time he actually advocated it being good to be uneducated dunces! Youth culture should encourage children to be the best they can, not pig ignorant.
