Another Hungarian record: Budapest is home to the planet's longest streetcar

Budapest's tram line number 1 recently added a 56-meter long street car manufactured by CAF. Eleven more are to go into service this summer.

The new street cars feature all the modern conveniences - low floors for easy boarding, air conditioning, wheel chair accessibility, and plenty of seating and standing space. In addition to being big on passenger comfort, the new trams are all easy on the environment. The drive mechanisms have an energy recovery feature that reduces electrical consumption.
