# lol en grapig!
sometimes A'dam has all the old trams going round the city.
It is hilarious.
Especially watching thefaces of bemused tourists.

[Mostly on Museumnach or Holland Festival]

# They are funny little trams
A befriended tram conductor once told me that these trams didn't have a speed limiter (as the new ones in The Hague are maxed out at 72km/h), so in theory these buggers could reach 300km/h on a straight stretch of rails ;)

# I've seen that a couple of times
even at slow speeds

/edit: could it be a coincidence that google images shows almost exclusively The Hague trams for 'tram ontspoord'?

# ha ha ha
that is because amsterdam taxi drivers are insane
so the tram drivers are more careful*
