Pinch me! I never thought something like this was even possible.
We travelled to Vienna in the summer of 2018. The architecture, the museums were just spectacular. But what I loved the most was these lovely criss crossing trams claiming the routes across the busy streets. In particular this square, i can't recall the name- flanked by colourful rows of pastel townhouses, contrasted by bright red trams in the foreground. This image stuck in my mind and I came home to do an illustration.
Years later seeing this on the very same trams made me a bit emotional. It's small, but it's these are the kind of things that bring me joy over a huge sale.
This is the M1 4152 - build in 1929, making it's first journey in 2024.
