ČKD T6A5 (ex-Prague) Trams on Sofia Line 22 | Bulgaria 🇧🇬 (2025)

April 8–9, 2025 | Sofia, Bulgaria 🇧🇬 This video documents regular operation on Sofia tram line 22, which is currently worked exclusively by ČKD T6A5 tramcars acquired from Prague. Originally built for the Prague tram network, ČKD T6A5 vehicles have found a second life in several European cities. In Sofia, these trams form a distinctive and homogeneous fleet on line 22, offering a rare opportunity to observe classic Czech tram engineering in daily operation outside its country of origin. Prague T6A5 tramcars were also exported to Ukraine and Brno, but this video focuses specifically on their continued use in Sofia’s urban transport system. 🚋 About the trams Model: ČKD T6A5 Origin: Prague, Czech Republic Operator: Sofia Urban Transport Line: Tram line 22 Traction: Electric (tram) City: Sofia, Bulgaria The ČKD T6A5 represents a key chapter in late-20th-century Central European tram development and remains an important part of Sofia’s public transport heritage. — 🌍 Support Railway Retro (no donations needed): https://www.railwayretro.com/support — 📡 Follow RailwayRetro 🎬 YouTube →    / railwayretro   📷 Instagram →   / railway_retro   📖 Facebook →   / railwayretro   🌐 Website → https://www.railwayretro.com — 🚉 Transport playlists 🚆 Trains:    • 🚆 Trains & Railways | Real Operations & Ra...   🚋 Trams:    • 🚋 Trams & Light Rail | Urban Rail Transpor...   🚎 Trolleybuses:    • 🚎 Trolleybuses | Electric Urban Transport ...   🚌 Buses:    • 🚌 Buses & Bus Transport | Urban and Region...   🚇 Metro:    • 🚇 Metro & Underground Systems | Trains, St...   #CKDT6A5 #SofiaTrams #ExPrague #TramLine22 #UrbanTransport #PublicTransport #EuropeanTransit #RailwayRetro #TransportHistory #Bulgaria
