Bavaria: tram jumps off the track: fire brigade helps with muscle power

Munich (dpa / lby) - With the help of muscle power, among other things, Munich firefighters put a derailed tram back on the rails. The tram jumped off the tracks on Monday morning during a workshop trip due to the weather conditions, the fire brigade said. It would have taken the emergency services two hours to get the vehicle back on track using physical effort, a cable winch and other equipment. Because of the operation, there were traffic jams in the rush hour. The tram should then be checked for possible damage in the depot.
