Wir beginnen mit dem neuesten Typ: TMK 2200 Bei der TMK 2200 handelt es sich um einen vom kroatischen Konsortium "CroTram" hergestellten Niederflur-Straßenbahn-Gelenkwagentypen, der bei der Straßenbahn Zagreb im Dienst ist. Die Grundvariante des TMK 2200 hat eine Länge von 32 Metern und erreicht eine Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 70 km/h (auf 50 begrenzt). Sie besitzen 46 Sitz- und 156 Stehplätze. Im Jahr 2003 folgte die Bestellung, der Prototyp wurde im Dezember 2005 nach Zagreb geliefert, anschließend folgte die Serienlieferung der ersten Serie bis 2007. Diese hatte einen Wert von umgerechnet insgesamt 112 Mio. Euro und bestand aus 70 Fahrzeugen. Aus Modernisierungsgründen wurde 2005 eine zweite Serie bestehend aus weiteren 70 Fahrzeugen bestellt, die zwischen 2007 und 2010 geliefert wurde, und einen Gesamtwert von 130 Mio. Euro hatte. Im Vergleich zu anderen Fahrzeugen waren die Produktionskosten geringer, was allerdings trotz Versuchseinsätzen in Städten wie Helsinki (2007) und Sofia (2008) zu keiner weiteren Bestellung von anderen Betrieben führte. Interesse gab es auch in Belgrad, Rumänien und Lodz (PL). Aufgrund des schlechten inneren Designs und verschiedener technischer Mängel wurden bis heute keine weiteren Fahrzeuge bestellt. EN: With this video begins the presentation of the tram types in the Croatian capital, Zagreb. We are starting with the newest type: TMK 2200 The TMK 2200 is a low-floor tram that operates in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia. ZET (tr. Zagreb Electric Tramways, the city public transportation company), ordered 70 vehicles in 2003 after "Crotram" consortium won the tender on the ground of lower price, competing with offers by Siemens (Combino) and AnsaldoBreda (Sirio). The first batch of vehicles was delivered, as the contract requested, from May 2005 until June 2007. Satisfied with the quality of the trams, ZET ordered another 70 vehicles in mid-2007, which are due to be delivered by May 2009. All 140 vehicles ordered by ZET are 32 m long, 5-part version, but ZET has also announced a purchase of 60 shorter (3-part, about 21 m long) trams of this type. The price of the second batch is €130 million (€1.85 m. per vehicle) and is somewhat higher than price for the initial 70 ordered in 2003 (€112 million). However, due to lower production costs the increased price is still very competitive compared to other European equivalents, which are priced up to €2.5 million each per similar vehicle. Other transport companies also have been interested. International interest in purchasing the TMK 2200 series tramway exists. Although Croatian press articles have suggested many operators being seriously interested in the TMK 2200, the more concrete arrangements so far have been: Łódź Regional Tram project, for which the Crotram won on public tendering, but it was eventually annulled and Polish Pesa won the repeated tender. In September 2006 an arrangement was made with Belgrade authorities to bring one tram for trial, but the arrangement failed, In 2007 HKL (Helsinki City Transport), Helsinki, Finland showed interest for the TMK 2200. Končar sent one of ZETs vehicles (Nr. 2263) to Helsinki on 5 December 2007 and later submitted an offer in the initial round of HKL's tender process for 40 new trams. However, Končar was not selected for the second round and the board of HKL decided on 2 December 2010 to order 40 new articulated trams from the Finnish manufacturer Transtech Oy. The final selection was made between Bombardier, CAF and Transtech. In test service the TMK 2200 received various critics and ultimately HKL decided to acquire trams with a more conventional bogie design, In 2008 authorities of Zagreb agreed with authorities of Sofia, Bulgaria to bring one of vehicles for trial. In October 2008 vehicle no. 2282 was sent to Sofia, In 2009 Crotram participated in tender for 30 new trams for Belgrade, but the city decided in favour of CAF Urbos. Due to the poor internal design and various technical defects, no further vehicles have been ordered to date. #ZagrebTrams #TramvajiuZagrebu #KončarTMK2200 All my videos are copyrighted!
