Not vintage - in daily service! The networks has so sharp courves that the could only use two axle cars. So they modernisized the old cars some years ago. They get a new truck, new motors and modern electronic controls. It's a bit like putting a Ford T body at a chassis of an actual car! But it worked fine...

thank you for the comment and the correction. indeed, the vintage texture was premeditated in the picture for maximizing artistic effect. it was not meant to criticize or belittle Lisbon's transportation system...

You don't have to apologize! The modernization was done in a way to keep the historic look, so for non-specialists they stil looks old.
