Travels 2018 – Part I (Denmark, Ukraine, VDVA Belgrade & Germany)
On 31. May 2018 by WebmasterWe started the year with a visit to the National Tramway Museum in Denmark to witness the big celebrations there (40 years!) with a short side-trip to Aarhus. In May we went to Ukraine again. We had travelled to most of the countries’s systems before but we had never managed to go East of Charkiw towards Donbas (the western systems that is of course). This was done by car from Kiev and we only met extremely nice people. Not one minute did we feel unsafe. You will find photos of: Kiev (Київ; Киев) – Poltava – Charkiw (Харків; Харьков/Charkow) – Bachmut (Бахмут) – Druschkiwka (Дружківка; Дружковка/Druschkowka) – Kramatorsk (Краматорськ; Краматорск/Kramatorsk) – Lyssytschansk (Лисичанськ; Лисичанск/Lissitschansk) – Sjewjerodonezk (Сєвєродонецьк; Северодонецк/Sewerodonezk) – Slowjansk (Слов’янськ; Славянск/Slawjansk) – Dnipro (Дніпро) formerly Dnipropetrovsk – Zaporizhzhia (Запорі́жжя; Запоро́жье) formerly Alexandrovsk – Mariupol (Маріуполь; Мариуполь) – Cherson (Херсон) – Mykolajiw (Миколаїв; Николаев/Nikolajew) – Odessa (Оде́са; Оде́сса). In April VDVA revisited Belgrade/Serbia and in February I also found the last tram in Bremerhaven/Germany.
