Notes

Compared to the TW 2000 and TW 2500 EMUs, Üstra, operator of the light rail and bus systems of Hanover, decided that normal buses just weren’t shiny enough, so they hired british designer James Irvine to design a new version of the Evobus Mercedes Benz Citaro. These rather odd-looking vehicles can be found in both Hanover and Leipzig today. Here, two articulated ones are standing in front of a depot.
