Electrico in Lisbon City Wallpaper

Old trams in Lisbon

01/2013
Particularly fascinating are the Lisbon Electricos - the old-style trams that are making their way through even the narrowest streets of the city. Trams always consist of only one car. For felt drive thousands around the city. The Electricos get the power via a funny antenna that is several meters long and is made with a small wheel on the overhead line. The picture shows a Electrico transversely driving to the pedestrian zone in the Baixa (Old Town) Lisbon. In the background to see the Arco da Rua Augusta is the Praça do Comércio at the port. A super great wallpaper. With the Sephia effect even more beautiful!
