Why are Basel's trams so shit and inferior to Zurich's brehs?
Basel:
>weird, illogical routes
>too few lines going from the center to the train station, so they're always very full
>Siemens Combino -- nuff said
>always late
>too many lines through the city center, so they get clogged
>double stops, so you have to run to your tram if it stops on the wrong side
>ugly green livery, even more ugly yellow and red livery on BLT trams
Meanwhile Zurich:
>logical, intuitive routes
>train station well connected to city center
>Cobra tram is bad but by far not as bad as Siemens Combino
>always perfectly on time
>lines well balanced, don't bunch up
>no double stops
>A E S T H E T I C blue and white livery
Basel trams are def the runt of the litter.
