WELCOME TO OMSK

At 1:50 is the beginning of a reversing loop & the end is at 2:25.

srry to bother you again (I noticed all the comments are mine so far). What purpose does the track serve that intersects the tram track at 0:40 ?

[TimBrown59]

It is one of the many freight lines in Omsk from a factory but I have never seen a train on it.

You see it more clearly in the other "The view" videos & the crossing keeper hut is "Manned" or "Womanned" in this case as shown in one of those videos.

Brilliant stuff:-)))

Thanks!

I hope to visit Tver, Russia this summer. I have been there but sadly I did not film the trams there. They have a variety of old soviet trams. Maybe similar to Omsk? I know there are ktm-5s but some old tatras too

[TimBrown59]

That sounds good but do you mean this summer 2009 or 2010?

[timosha21]

2010

[timosha21]

is it possible to understand the tram announcements?

[TimBrown59]

I believe they are announcing the stops.

[timosha21]

I highly suspect that. but is one able to understand what they are saying?!
