Prague 3-axle Tatra T400 9349. Photo by Boris Cefer; from the collection of Bob Rathke. Date unknown. "It is Tatra T400 originating from Praha (Prague), the village has a name Mnichovice. There were many such wrecks around Praha, all used for various storage purposes. Now there are only ruins, some of which we cannibalized for parts or what remained of them. We have similar wrecks that we got from a location near Praha and the parts we have been collecting are for this one. Unfortunately, there is almost no electric apparatus and the remaining wrecks are empty. Several weeks back we cannibalized a wreck which still contained a few contactors, controller, poles, motor for compressor and battery charging dynamo."

Electrical equipment of another Prague T400. The contactors are almost identical to those belonging to the above. Photo by Boris Cefer, a rail transit engineer in the Czech Republic; submitted from the collection of Bob Rathke. Date unknown.

This trolley was a prototype articulated trolleybus. It was an OMS - Isotta - TIBB series. This is an Italian made trolleybus, but apparently it is somewhat different from the series that was acquired by Milan and a few other cities that were of the series OMS-IF-TIBB. See Milan Photos for further information. Note that the rear wheels are steerable. Photographer unknown. Date is probably the late 30s. Courtesy imhd.sk.
