Recall that the tram line on this street was opened by Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin in September last year.
Maksim Liksutov noted that more than 150 units of historical equipment participated in the parade and exhibition of retro transport: 16 trams of different generations, about 80 rally crews and about 75 cars, including the Ikarus-280 bus.
How it was:
🔹 More than 140 thousand spectators visited the parade and the exhibition.
🔹 Not only trams from different eras were presented, but also exhibits from the Moscow Transport Museum and the Museum of the Special Purpose Garage of the Federal Guard Service of Russia.
🔹 The audience was even able to see a horse-drawn tram – the predecessor of the electric tram.
🔹 The atmosphere of old Moscow was recreated by historical reenactors, and the concert program was attended by artists of the Music in the Metro project, the Academic Choir of the Moscow Metro and DJ Smash.
Today the 19th tram parade took place. The parade was led by a horse-drawn tram drawn by four horses. Such events are liked by Muscovites and traditionally gather a large number of spectators. On behalf of Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin, we will continue to organize more interesting events for residents and guests of the capital, — added Maksim Liksutov.
