Nordhausen Gotha Trams

The older Nordhausen 2-axle trams were replaced by Gotha 2-axle and articulated trams, one new (No.40) and others second-hand from other DDR operators.



2-axle Nordhausen Gotha T57 tram No.43

Motor wagon no 43 actually survives as a historical triebwagen in Nordhausen, though renumbered 40.
This vehicle was new in 1958 as Gera no 143, but acquired by Nordhausen in 1969, one of 7 such vehicles acquired from this source.
In total 9 of these double ended Gotha cars were operated. All except this one were scrapped by 1995. 
The end of Gotha operation in Nordhausen was on 31 Jan 1992 on this route, Linie 2: Arnoldstraße - Parkallee.

2-axle Nordhausen Gotha tram No.46 to Altentor, Arnoldplatz in August 1989

These single cars were double ended, and could operated without a turning circle.
This T57 Gotha car from 1959 arrived in Nordhausen from Gera. Unfortunately, No 46 did not survive.
It was withdrawn in 1992 and spent some time as a school bistro before being scrapped.
