Интересно, где собирают эти вагоны. В США есть заводы Сименс?

When did they start running four and five car trains in Edmonton? The oldest photo I've found here on the site dates back to 2011: https://transphoto.org/photo/443947/ , but I don't know if this was the case before then.

Also in Seattle now. Photo's will follow.

These are clearly exceptional opportunities to take special photos.

I haven't managed it yet (I think) but there are some special photos in collections, like this one. Just 5 vehicles, but also ok...

I also discovered this by accident: in the tram, there is no possibility to look forward because the cabin is completely closed. So one could only see laterally and then more or less guess whether it is a useful photo location.
Not only was my guess right, but I was also lucky that the sun was in a perfect position at that time (morning). Later in the day, this would not have been the case.
The frequency of the tram is only moderate and here too I was very lucky that nothing or nobody came into my view. That too is not at all a self-evident fact in city traffic...

Very interesting. Most likely an in-service 'delivery' of an extra car to/from the terminal. This is sometimes practiced by some light rail carriers in the US. For instance, in Sacramento and Phoenix. However, considering the location of this photo and the time of the day it was shot, so far I was unable to discern the logic behind this move. However, the theory is further supported by these photos:

Photos of 4-car trains in regular service on regular basis were possible only in Sacramento in the early 2000s.

Moreover, Sacramento was a site of a longest consist I ever observed, a 7-car train of cars shuttled between the terminal and the depot, unfortunately, not in revenue service )

Anyway - an excellent lucky shot!

Salt Lake City's must-do premier shot. Many thanks for excellent photos.
