Škoda 19 T

what is it?

The Škoda 19 T is a five carbody section low-floor bi-directional tram, developed by Škoda Transportation for Wrocław. The tram is not different from currently used Škoda 16 T trams, except for the fact that it has two driver's cabins and doors on both sides of the tra mim. It also features more CCTV, place for bicycles and baggage in the centre section, and the seats in the end sections are located in the driving direction, not sideways as the predecessor's.
