Karlsruhe has seven tram routes and an interconnected tram/train network that has served as the model for other German cities. The trams and trains share tracks throughout the region, allowing for seamless integration and convenient transfers. I guess it's no surprise that it works well. The question is why other countries don't adopt similar systems.

Great postcard, I visited Karlsruhe in the 1980s, but I don't remember seeing the pyramid (and I know I would have found that interesting), I will have to look out the (modern) postcards I have and see if I took any photos.
ReplyDeleteLove the beautiful handwriting on the backs of some of these postcards.

ReplyDeleteSmall pyramid, small Big Ben...anything else small in Karlsruhe, "markt" as such? :)
Boy! That pyramid really sticks out doesn't it. But the streetcars really make up for it.
ReplyDeletebeautiful card and composition, despite the odd pyramid.
