It may be a slight improvement on line 5. But the system in general seems quite run-down. And ridership numbers have still been low.

That's reasonable. The one time we got the 6 Rupies ticket, the distance was to the Esplanade terminus was less than 4 km. Thanks!

The metro ist operated driverless, but you need to be able to drive the metro coaches manually, as defects can occur. The red metro line runs mostly overground on an elevated structure. And in Dubai - although its located in a adessert - it does rain from time to time. Just recently there haven been really heavy rains with flooded streets.

Метро работает без машиниста, но нужно уметь управлять вагонами метро вручную, так как возможны неполадки. Красная линия метро проходит в основном над землей на эстакаде. А в Дубае - хотя он расположен в адессерте - время от времени идут дожди. Совсем недавно прошли очень сильные дожди, затопившие улицы.

Your description is quite accurate, there hasn't been much change.

Line 5 runs a different schedule during the daytime. We noticed up to 3 trams running at the same time on line 5. Traffic was limited to certain times of the day, during noon there was a gap of a couple of hours without any trams running on line 5. This also happened on other lines, with line 5 having the longest interruption (which is logical, as the trams need to run on line 25 to reach the depot).

Tickets did still cost 7 Rupies, except for one time, when a conductor sold us a Ticket for 6 Rupies. On lines 5 and 25 we got some conventional tickets, whereas on line 24/29 I got a thermal printed ticket from the conductor.

We saw a flawed tram parked on the right track (outer loop). This track seems to be in use, besides its bad condition. All other trams we saw used the inner loop.

Thanks!

Nice, very interesting. Had no idea, that they already built some tunnels for the Bratislava metro. Are there any more tunnels in Bratislava besides this?

Great picture! Really hope that this line will be reopened one day. Been there at the same weekend, hope it wasn't my last trip by tram to Lutomiersk. At least the section between Łódź and Konstantynów Łódzki has enough potential to be reopened.

Sehr schönes Foto! Schade, dass morgen Schluss ist
