@@TRENINI-AEREI-AUTOMODELLI ieri notte (complice una "gamba matta" ho fatto le ore piccole!) ho fatto il montaggio di altri due video sui tram di Bucarest, girati nel 2013, di cui uno percorrendo la linea 1 che attraversa tutta la città.
Tatra trams: one of the many reasons (Smetana, Hašek/Švejk, Prague with its defenestration and Navratilova, Karel Gott, Barrandov studios etc) we love the Czech people. I consider T4 and T3 the most beautiful trams, despite their modern design (usually, I would go for more retro style), probably it is the sentimental attachment, too, as I have grown with these beautiful machines.
@@Cristake1974 the Czechs are the true engineers of Central Europe, when they see out to design and manufacture something they seem to just get it right, cars, trucks, trams, trolleybuses, weapons from the famous ZB 24 rifle employed by the Romanian army in WW2 (my wife's grandfather always spoke wonders about it), to the Skoda mortars of WW1, the best piece of artillery in the Austro-Hungarian arsenal. I forgot Jawa motorcycles....there are just so many engineering marvels coming from one place.
@@alexsmart9576 I would say the T3 and T4 trams have an aero-dynamic design that is not to be found on old trams, like this model Patrick presented or, I don't know, Ringhoffer or even horse carried trams. Its bullet shape reminds me a bit (and here's only a personal perception) somehow on retro-futurism art. Compared to design of vehicles of today, indeed it is retro, but compared to its "ancestors"...
@@Cristake1974 the Tatra T3 and T4 were futuristic for their era, but at the same time they still looked like trams, unlike the streamlined contemporary trams that are produced nowadays, with a styling that ranges between a home appliance and a toilet seat, the latter represented by the Ansaldo Breda, now Hitachi Rail Sirio tram range.
@@alexsmart9576 they were very modern when introduced, while still looking like trams. Some of the contemporary designs look like all sorts of things, but I'm just old fashioned 😅
