This tram will continue in passenger service until 12 March 2023 at the latest, after which it will become a museum tram after overhaul. The route will be closed for a longer period due to renovation. So these are the last days for this tram and this route.

Tramplein
Route 11

A coincidental (?) encounter between the 2 oldest p.c.c.'s from Antwerp. The 2000 is a museum tram, the 7001 is still a regular tram.

This route is no longer used in normal service. Route 12 is temporarily using it, which offers the opportunity to take photos with trams in this street.
The use of this tram is of course a bonus...

Draakplaats
Route 11

The temporary terminus of route 11 for one weekend. A local tram enthusiast was dissatisfied with the deployment of the trams on Saturday and obtained that the 7001 was used on route 11 on Sunday. This is still the oldest Antwerp P.C.C. in service.
The tram runs in the historic colors and fitted wonderfully well with the also historic building of the tram company.

A part of the return movements took place in the former workshop, where the first Antwerp P.C.C.'s were maintained. Apart from a few details, this would perfectly be a photo from 55 years ago.

The oldest tram is (still) in service on the newest tramline of Antwerp. The tram is kept in excellent condition for his future in the tram museum. Officially this is a publicity tram for the tram museum. This explains the historical painting.

Antwerpen,  SNCV Standard wooden motor car  Br. 9994   —  excursion

Bredabaan
Excursion

Back in the 60's! Exactly 50 years ago the last interurban (vicinal) tram line was closed in Antwerp. This was commemorated and P.C.C. 7001 received the original number 2001 for that day. Both trams existed in 1968 and this crossing is historically correct at this location, where line 3 still runs and formerly line 63. The P.C.C. also received a historical line indication of the 60's for this occasion.

Route (1), Excursion

Until 14/07/1965 there was a tram line 1 in Antwerp. The tram line was abandoned and the tracks were broken up. 40 years later, the error of that time was rectified and in April 2006 the route was put back into service — this time for line 12.
On 28/10/2006 we organized an excursion with PCC 7001: this was the advertising tram of the trammuseum and we put an original line indicator in the tram. PCC's never drove on the original line 1, although the number was present on the indicators.
In the autumn of 2019, the original line 1 will be fully restored: the entire route will be reconstructed and the line number will come back!

The old situation, then only with two tracks and an empty environment.

This is the 2nd official livery of this tram. Afterwards, the tram was covered with advertising, but for a few years it also drove like this in red, the standard colour in Antwerp at the time.

Photo posted to commemorate the 60th anniversary of this tram, which is still in regular service.
Route 2 still runs at this place, but now underground: above nothing reminds of the tram's existence anymore.
