Gatsby For Female Thick Hair

3 things to puke on the Net arrived DVB

Hello!

tonight has me again so pissed that I now know in my blog writing:

first On the street I wanted to stop by the Angelika 64, Elbepark coming change to tram 11 to Bühlau. The bus was waiting when I got out (nice for the passengers of about 2 minutes later next tram) until the tram came. The only problem is, the stop was before A few weeks reopened after a complete reconstruction of the Bautzner road at this point. This one has made the stop but too short for a 45-meter articulated bus and a tram system, so that the last part of the tram before the stop right next to a railing to a halt. I thought at first that will decide how the tram driver, but no, he has opened the doors yet. Good for connecting passengers passengers, bad for passengers who wanted to get off the last part. The same problem exists, for example, at the railway station Neustadt. If there are two 45-meter lanes are in a row, the last part is still on the crosswalk. Mostly I am here But if glad to keep it and go through the doors, because I'm still young. Shit is the stop Walpurgisstrasse. While at the Central Station Nord, at Pirnaischer Square and at the Prague street can always keep two 45-meter lanes, which goes to the only station not in between! So it is there mostly to a small traffic jam at the station when two trains in a row on the road are because both do not fit into the station.

point 2 is the new design of bus stops at the Angelika road. I have nothing against new things, but here is the design not been so successful. Often I want (like so many others) coming from Bühlau change in the 64 direction Stauffenbergallee, Trachenberger place, same park. On average, one has to 1 to 2 minutes time (schedule). Well now everything is made very secure. However, time is running out, because you walk into town only to have to change. Then Bautzner along a short stretch of town to walk. Then at a traffic light Bautzner again must cross to get to stops island in the middle of the road. The whole is often difficult in the time allocated, so that actually almost all of the slightly shorter, but take much more direct path without crossing the roads and traffic lights across the tracks back to the other station. So that's not think you can see that to the appropriate handrails, but what can you do if you want to create the bus yet. I am not a planner for stations, but maybe it would have here a somewhat different solution gegeben.Schön is not so!

And point 3, I personally find most sickening! Since the tram route to Bühlau was locked out for 1 year. In that time we have exchanged a few kilometers on the tracks. I would say is not renewed and replaced, because I work quality of the railway track to puke think! There were some speed restrictions and points where the tram is due to poor track to roll them in eliminating (such as a short Piece of the White Eagle Station depot Bühlau direction, and bad tracks with the pluck gabs on the mountain of the murder due to the high bridge Plattleite). But what I have to tell: Although the tracks on the mountain for Plattleite are moved up from scratch, exist there at some point lateral blows from the rails, so that the tram will be thrown into the inside of the curve, so that only this morning two more men who just had risen to the Plattleite get out, would have fallen into a sitting. Also behind the White Eagle is available in the beating of the tram rails (both horizontally and vertically), which suggest a poor quality of track leaves. Just as the seals next to the rail to the asphalt of the road. After less than a year the seals in the area were slightly above the bus stop rausgebröselt Plattleite again! So either it did not cost much (I hope it is), or the company has delivered here bungling and no one really noticed hats. Or you build today (with out crumbly be seals on the rails - no idea). have

The
the DVB have not noticed (but the drivers, too - except the driver - not so often that way)?

person to person, not nice is that! Especially the poorly laid tracks. The German railway could be something on routes where the ICE 200 to 300 cases do not allow the station! Now here is driven only 60 to 70 things, but that's not nice that the freshly laid tracks convey such a bad ride! I have experienced it differently (I Have A in Dresden).



PS. I would like to correct something: When I looked again in late May the tracks at White Hart precisely not looked to be all that bad. Either the seals are made only partially so bad, it has been "remedied".

Can I Use My Jcp Card In The Salon

bus with a trailer (MAN / Göppel MAXI TRAIN) to test in Dresden





Hello!


hours on Saturday 17th April 2010 I am finally with the new MAXI TRAIN MAN and Göppel drove through Dresden sample.


Two weeks is this combination of MAN bus and Göppel supporters in Dresden in the test run on the lines 61 and 62, both of which are extremely busy and should therefore be possible in future to be built by newly adopted trams.

Although both lines are used on articulated buses last a 10-minute intervals is not enough. The 61 runs past the Technical University of Dresden and is partly supported by the E61, so that there is about a 5-minute intervals.

The 62 connects two parts of the city with downtown and moves already heavily loaded, even though the clock at about 6, 7 or 8 minutes during peak time is.

therefore seek Dresdner (transport companies - DVB) for solutions and have the offer of the manufacturer MAN assumed, a relatively new version of a bus with a trailer from the company down Göppel sample.


course I have not let me take, and rode along with the new team for Dresden.

the beginning was not easy, because, despite the support of DVB-hotline staff of the bus on Friday noon, the E61 from Gruna / Karcher All / road Tiergarten Löbtau not come. Eventually he was replaced at short notice. But an employee of the DVB was nice enough to give me a day later, the travel times for Saturday. Since then has everything went well and I can now describe my driving impressions here and present a few pictures. The videos I made are, since Saturday evening on Youtube under http://www.youtube.com/user/Blogbetreiber online.

Anyway, I'm there on Saturday afternoon the University Hospital Dresden down because there begins her journey to Dresden, the 62-Dölzschen. The MAXI TRAIN arrived as promised (with a slight delay of about 2 minutes) and it was during the short stay up to continue to run a video from the outside, that the coupling system (the pole) well shows


At the last stop in Dölzschen I had enough time to make these photos of the coupling system:




Unfortunately, the tractor, white and red in the trailer, so not everything looks like a whole, but nevertheless we can see that the followers of optically measuring her very well to the towing vehicle coordinated.


I first got into the towing vehicle to get a feel for the engine load. After all, is the trailer (at up to 18-ton bus) again up to 14.5 tons in addition predominate. The bus driver told me about the stay at the other end of the line in Dölzschen any extra bus has more power with switchable translations, so the additional load can be handled well in all situations. While comparable buses in this length of 12 meters, often 260 or 280 hp, has this version of MAN 312 hp.


So at least I was sitting at the top directly above the engine and had the feeling that one already hears that the engine quite afford what must, and the bus now not as quickly accelerated. However, over the other route shown that it can still accelerate faster, and I was then at the end completely satisfied with the required performance (acceleration / driving experience).


After a few stops I was back in the Pendant set and was very surprised by the ride. In curves, it is a very different feeling than in a normal or articulated. On the heels of the foot: When all four wheels are steered trailer, so that the trailer makes cornering movements that can not be used by other vehicles. And although it really weird was I found it rather pleasant! A short video of the steered axles during cornering what I did you can find under http://www.youtube.com/user/Blogbetreiber or right here:


well as a short video where defying cornering (due to the smaller radius) deflect the wheels do not have to:



we come again to the first negative experience with the trailer before I begin to rave! Like so many other buses or vehicles are also part of the trailer to the bad roads to the line 62 clucking noises from the suspension of himself. In addition I have if it had to go fast, the key for the door opening is not found, because they look visually different from most other Dresdner buses.
So, and now to the positive driving impressions of the trailer. As I wrote the driving experience is the steering wheel to another as they used to. I found it rather pleasant but, like the stillness in the trailer should not just a couple of slightly tipsy Dynamo fans (like on Saturday) ride. You hear about the engine only when driving at times when accelerating somewhat doppelverglassten through the windows. Otherwise, it's in the trailer mucksmäusschen still. In the bus you otherwise, the engine always present (at least if you rather sit back), here you can hear but most, when the hydraulic system has to do something because he is very well insulated and so does not have a traction motor.


Haltestellendruchsagen work in the Dresden buses already used to.

Dresdner version of the trailer was more like one with more seats. Was still between the two doors of the trailer Space for bicycles, strollers or wheelchairs.


The suspension was rather softer than usual from the buses, but the trailer made in the face of so many more non-upgraded Dresdner roads on the route from University Hospital to Dolzschen very violent up and down movements, which were fortunately of the most comfortable and soft seats of the trailer (so well-padded seats else is not normally in Dresden) intercepted.

The length of the pair in this version (MAN BUS A21 and G11 Göppel MAXI-trailer) is 23 meters why this dufte bus ride only with special permission in Dresden. Sometimes I had the Gefähl that the bus driver a bit more concentrated drive and with an articulated need, because the team simply still needs some more road space. Of course, here the years of routine lack of such vehicles in Dresden. To this was added, which will be built just now at the last stop in Dölzschen, so it was with the team of precision work to turn the bus in the narrow circle.


The trailer is also designed low-floor (step height 34 cm), and offered in the currently estimated to Dresden delivered Version 36 people a seat space, and therefore about as many as the normal bus, which was used as a tractor, and whether seats offered (32). It is available for example, but also in a version with a large parking area opposite the door 1 for bicycles, strollers, etc., then get another 30 passengers a seat.

between the two units are two large blue barrier tapes, the person before (even unintentional) dangerous to climb over the tiller at a standstill "turn" to hold.


It is a comfortable ride in the trailer, quieter than the front and funny when the driver moves a little faster around curves, and (for me) with such a degree of special atmosphere, so the drüfte like to be more often. I have found already positive feedback while driving passengers to the accompanying staff of the DVB. Just plan the DVB (unfortunately) currently tend not to procure such vehicles for regular service.

On the way back I went off at the stop street in Chemnitz, and there was this 4th and turned last video, which the Maxitrain in the (quite nifty) exit towards downtown (and from there to Augsburg road at the University Hospital Dresden) shows



All in all I must say, a nice idea with the trailer and a comfortable ride in it!


Maybe I'm yes go for the chance to enjoy, with such a bus and trailer. wishes

Happy

Rolf Schreiter

Frigidaire Dishwasher Film

Last new tram in Dresden

Hello!

had What am I just read on the Internet? The last of the 166 cars ordered since the turn is now beginning on Wednesday 7 April 2010, finally arrived and the fleet so completely. No wonder I have this car with the number 2843 in the last few days have not encountered on the network.

to the acceptance should be completed in 14 days, then they probably can admire on a daily basis.

official handover, however, as I wrote in a previous review, 29 May with a ceremonial baton handover in the evening against 19 clock on the Augustus Bridge.

Well I am happy that now only drive cars, where you have to climb stairs any more.

Then I'm curious how it goes with the trams in Dresden. While all are now modernized Tatra cars to the service and the fleet, but as I heard the Dresden work, I mean the DVB (Dresden Transport System), already a second generation (on the drawing boards).

wish a pleasant journey

Rolf Schreiter


PS. As soon as I catch the new, are of course again a picture of her!
