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'?
