T8m900m
T8M-900M is a tram serving the tram system of Sofia, Bulgaria. The trams were made between 1999 and 2001 by Tramkar as a renovation of the older T8M-900 trams. They have 3 sections (the second is low-floor) and they can carry up to 300 passengers. Their maximum speed is 60 km/h. They are orange with a white line on the bottom. The power of their two motors is 200 kW. They move on track gauge, gauge track (Narrow-gauge railway, narrow gauge) and can accelerate extremely fast for trams, faster than the newest, modern trams. One very good thing for these trams is that they are very light. A tram is about 30 tons. That is with 10 tons lighter than the new, modern ones. They are symbols of Sofia and her appearance.
