An interesting comparative view to the previous one as it shows that the track has more recently been realigned to the centre of the road. More significantly, the track to Hall is still present and can be seen going straight ahead in front of the tram. The alignment of the track at the side of the road was probably due to the fact that the Hall line crossed Mühlauer Brücke on the same side but with increasing traffic it became less suitable for the left turn that trams on the 1 made.

The tram is 61, still in original condition - it would later lose the lower strip of polished moulding and receive the later red and cream livery. Although withdrawn in 1989, happily it is still with as a museum tram.
