大意: 3/31世界上最長的路面電車正式加入布達佩斯的路面電車系統營運
是全長55.9公尺、9節的CAF Urbos Tram，在近期已完成現代化工程的1號線上路
到年中為止會有其他11列陸續上路
同一批訂單中還有35列34.2公尺(5節)車，則投入3, 17, 19號線。
HUNGARY: March 31 saw the entry into passenger service of what is claimed to
be the longest tram in the world. The 55·9 m long nine-section CAF Urbos
tram is in operation on the recently modernised Route 1 in Budapest, and will
be joined by 11 more by mid-year.
Budapest transport authority BKK ordered 37 bidirectional low-floor trams in
March 2014 with options for 87 more, and later placed a firm order for a
further 10. The cost of the 47 trams is HF46·5m, of which 99·3% is being
met through EU funds and the remainder through the government and Budapest
municipality.
The initial order included 12 of the 55·9 m trams, with the remaining 35
being 34·2 m long five-section vehicles. The first of the short trams
entered service in late 2015 on Route 3, with routes 17 and 19 following in
January.
All of the trams are equipped with air-conditioning, an audio-visual
passenger information system, CCTV, an event recorder and an onboard
passenger-counting system. The vehicles have the capability of being
retrofitted with on-board energy storage for catenary-free operation in
sections of the city centre.
