tram 2038 zürich 5th august 2008
5th august 2008, 2038 as the rear unit of a coupled set at bucheggplatz. 2038 is a unique unit, being the only tram 2000 in zürich to have a headlamp n the rear end. note that the red tail light is also moved from its usual position above the window to inside it. this lam's normal position is occupied by a stub to which windscreen wipers can be fixed. this tram was thus equipped to work a shuttle service between kunsthaus and bellevue during building work in the 1980s.

gtz trolleybus bucheggplatz, 5th august 2008
5th august 2008, a mercedes/abb o405 gtz trolleybus of the first batch on route 32 at bucheggplatz. the remaining vehicles of this batch are soon to vanish, having been replaced by modern low-floor trolleybuses. the most visible difference between the earlier and later batch was the holding mechanism for the lowered trolley booms, which was much smaller on the second batch, and shaped more like a pair of umbrella handles.
among politically incorrect trolleybus drivers, route 32 is called orient express , reflecting the ethnic makeup of the langstrasse area through which it runs.
