dear long-Awaited
is it you? Flexity? Really?
Hardly believe you’re now there. Not far off, in Vienna, or Bautzen, but here. In Zurich, Switzerland.
How long we have been waiting for you. Four years longer than originally intended we had to wait. Especially the last few months felt like an eternity. Several incidents brought the Tram to the stop and made it clear how much we miss you. As A Means Of Transport. But also beyond.
You’re in the first line actually, only one of those functional street lanes, where there is a lack of the VBZ fleet currently. Not more and not less. Spacious and built to transport as many people as possible from point A to point B. Standing can get a ride with you one-quarter more people than in a Cobra. At least in a place less dense stress! Seat moderately you are quasi-equal. The difference is in the Material. Your wood are the seats as comfortable as those in the Cobra. But the little bit of hardness, we can accept, because of the dusty microcosm in the Cobra and Buspolstern disgusted already for a long time.
“You look delicate, almost sublime.”
Even if you at first glance, not as a Paradise of Well-being appear for you, you can stand out. Clothes-hook, USB plug, ventilation of the downflow ceiling – what is the modern commuter want?
inside, you look tidy. White walls, darker floor, steel rods. No frills, that’s distracting. Of species, which are about to Be, we have in the city is quite enough.
You’re different
Graceful is not your outer appearance. You’re up to the Front to formally styled, have no corners and edges, such as the Tram 2000. Some like you accuse, but you stand. You seem delicate, almost sublime. Fear that you could increase your open-mindedness in the head, I didn’t.
Your face, it will make up for it, but it’s no where on the of a child, DOE eyes, soft mouth and chin. No comparison with the Cobra, which seems to eat like a dangerous animal through the traffic. You glide but. And even if you the squeaking should, we would look the other way the noise. You cast, without the need to make noise, and the city may need some.
Frankly, we have not believed at times, that you will honor us with your presence some day. To Bombardier, your parents, so to speak, we are not talking very well. With your other offspring to roll on the SBB rail, we have so our effort.
But you’re different, you have to be different and you’ll make Zurich a beautiful.
