 Trams of Hungary and much more...
The first horse tram service in Budapest was launched in 1866: the trains were doing the Kálvin tér-Újpest route, which is still one of the most heavily used traffic routes, only that we now have a subway ("metro" as we call it) instead of trams on the surface.
Routes were and are shortened or rarified year for year, and some of the plans suggest that the future of the tram is not very bright...
The purchase of these used trams (76 pieces) was almost hindered by political struggles in the city council, but they're now here and are having a great impact on the public transport system because they give a chance for the tram to survive in a quite anti-tram situation.

These two tram lines are vital to the city's life: their passenger load (more than 10,000 passengers/hour/direction during rush hours!) would call for an underground line, had not the main drain canal of the district be underneath the street surface.
Because of the metro line M2 and the tram routes 28 and 37 coming in from the suburbs this is the busiest stop of the Grand Boulevard routes.
Hint: The trams of route 4 and 6 are hard to photograph from the pavements of the bridge because of the heavy car traffic, but you can take nice pictures from there of route 2 trams running beneath.

An extension of CW was mooted in the A453 multi-modal study, alongside a dualled A453.
