The tram was donated in 2004 to a technical school in Koekelare (Belgium). The students were able to gain practical experience and it was also a reminder of the post-war period: a number of old trams have served as classrooms at that time.
The tram was used as a classroom.

Although the tram was considered to be a heritage, it has never been granted the status of a protected heritage site.
The school closed its technical departments (wood, electricity and metalworking) at 30/06/2012 and could no longer take care of the maintenance of the tram.
The tram was finally sold begin of 2014 to a local committee of a neighbouring village (Ichtegem).

Трамвай был подарен в 2004 году технической школе в Кукеларе (Бельгия). Студенты смогли получить практический опыт, и это также напомнило о послевоенном периоде: в то время в качестве учебных классов использовались старые трамваи.
Трамвай использовался как учебный класс.

Хотя трамвай считался наследием, ему никогда не предоставляли статус охраняемого объекта наследия.
Школа закрыла свои технические отделения (деревообработка, электричество и металлообработка) 30.06.2012 и больше не могла заботиться о ремонте трамвая.
Трамвай наконец-то продали в начале 2014 года местному комитету соседнего села (Ичтегем).

Установлен как памятник в г. Ихтегем (Бельгия) www.google.com/maps/@51.0940203,3.0136547,3a,30y,64.96h,87.75t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1svLhNSZo4yq7_ovwLOt5GTg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

No. With certainty: in Rotterdam and Brussels the tram was left untouched and certainly no components were used for the restoration of other trams.
I do know that for example the bronze bell in the tram in Koekelare (school) was stolen: this was told to me by the current owner.
In what state the controller is now: no idea. Theoretically, no one would have looked at it for the last 50 years. One consolation: there are 2 of them and both driver's posts seemed to me to be complete and original.

In Russia, these controllers have not survived, and I just wanted to see its design. :)

A good reason for me to visit next year (summer 2021?) this tram again. Of course: many can happen. I just hope that not too many tram enthusiasts will bother the owner, or worse, to try to enter in his property.
