Charleroi,  BN/ACEC type 6100 6-axle  # 6114   —  route 90, 6125+6114
Charleroi — Last journey of route 90 (29/08/1993)

La Louvière, Rue du Gazomètre
Route 90, 6125+6114

The driver had also taken his daughter and his wife with him and the flowers were presented to his wife.
Afterwards, the tram departed back towards Charleroi, even though the ride ended in Anderlues, after many stops along the way. These were no more photo stops (dark / night) but stops at every pub, in every village, where the locals (the later, the more drunk) wanted to wave the tram goodbye.
The journey ended well after 02h00, with a delay of more than 5 hours or more...

The service was already operated by buses in the evening. Because of the delay already incurred (one hour), the first bus ride (which had to leave one hour later) was already present, which caused an unexpected parallel. It was the first and last time that bus and tram 90 could be photographed next to each other.

Arrival of the tram in Anderlues, which had left earlier in Charleroi. A tram had been chosen which had recently been repainted in the new colours. Of course the tram was appropriately decorated for the occasion.

The 6125 had received the new colour scheme, but drove with the old number for a while. The photo was made 1 day before the closure of the line.
