DSCN2217 VBZ (Zürich) tram in Bahnofstrasse - 16 Jun 2008

Monday 16 June 2008 (1538) - The trams of VBZ (Verkehrsbetriebe der Stadt Zürich) reign supreme in the core area of Zürich city centre which is served by few VBZ buses. Tram 2075 heads south along Bahnhofstrasse to Wollishofen, a suburb in the south west of the city. If we had sound on this picture we could hear the siren of the police car which was overtaking the tram. A few moments earlier it had been prevented from getting through because of two trams stopped side by side at their stops directly opposite each other. Once away the police car sped down the street to a jewellery shop. As we walked passed we saw someone being arrested.
