Omsi 2: Add-on Zurich Tram Line 11 - First Look & Review | Cobra 5/6 | Auzelg to Rehalp

Welcome to the latest DLC for Omsi 2: Add-on Zurich Tram Line 11. We take out first look at the new Swiss DLC and I show you how to start and drive the low-floor Cobra 5/6 tram as we take it for a spin on the 13 kilometre line 11. I give my thoughts and full review of this new tram and tram map for Omsi 2.
About the DLC: Welcome to Zurich !
Although not officially the capital and government headquarters, Zurich is the cultural, financial and tourist center of Swiss. Having a tram as a vehicle in OMSI 2 program, now you have the opportunity to drive through the mere center of Zurich and enjoy the classical, intact and divine architecture of this unique worldwide famous city. Driving a bus through the center, though, is not allowed.
The tram route 11, 13km long with 34 stops, takes you from rural suburbs of Auzelg all the way to the city center and then uphill to green Rehalp. First, you get to see modern business facilities along Thurgauerstrasse Street, the City Stadium, the Tram Depot and Oerlikon Railway Station where Stadler Giruno, the newest gem of Swiss railway industry, is located. It is placed on platform 3, but when passing through, also on platforms 1 and 2.

Whooooa 🔝 The Rattlesnake is finally 😉♥️out on OMSI 2 🇨🇭💯. The Rattlesnake is the name given by the inhabitants of Zurich following the misfortunes of the Cobra when it was put into service in the early 2000s. Better known under the name of Cobra Be 5/6, this new millennium tram built by Bombardier Transport for the Zurich VBZ which will be one of the only operators in Switzerland with (Basel?) 🇨🇭 to acquire this very particular equipment for the time because it was the first tram with a flat floor. A good idea at the origin of the ABB Group consortium, Schindler Group with a design by Pininfarina, but the internal quarrels with Adtranz and its Flexity, since the takeover by Bombardier will delay the release, not to mention the uncertain reliability of this type of equipment. Why this particular choice of the VBZ when the Siemens Combino 🇩🇪 was the choice of other Swiss cities like the capital, Bern. The answer comes from the fact that Bombardier Transportation's tramway was longer than that of its competitor Siemens Mobilité; 88 examples will have been built and generalized on all lines, but without any additional orders. Its successor, if we can call it that, will be the 70 examples of the Flexity 2 as part of the replacement of the Tram 2000 model built between 1976 and 1993 (Be 4/6, Be 4/8 and Be 2/4 motorized). ). trailer) Mirage Be 4/6 trams from the late 1960s having been sold to Ukraine 🇺🇦. Finally Bombardier and Adtranz through Alstom, which bought the Transport branch of the Canadian Bombardier in great difficulty, will have finally succeeded at the end of January 2021 in imposing its design of Modern Flexible Tramways of the Boa type.

Thanks for the overview, might mention some of that in the next video! With credit of course. Quite like the BE 4/6.

[@Tram2101]

​@@TransportEnthusiastI hope they add the tram 2000

[@TransportEnthusiast]

Highly doubt they will unfortunately

[@Tram2101]

@@TransportEnthusiast but they are already as ai trams so they could do it

[@TransportEnthusiast]

@Tram2101 yes but ai and actually driveable are very different things and the latter requires a lot more work.

[@KevsterWilson]

Is this them trying to profit off Omsi by making a tram route because they know Lotus is such a flop & nobody interested

[@TransportEnthusiast]

Gotem! Yeah insane the whole Lotus thing, realised yesterday Omsi 2 is in part just funneling money to Lotus.

[@milosh996]

Strange since, if anything, trams are Lotus best feature right now. It's unexpected to see Omsi 2 tram DLC nowadays.
With that being said, Stadbus Hamburg DLC for Lotus will be really interesting to see.

[@TransportEnthusiast]

@milosh996 might be, but game is still not optimised well and Lotus still looks behind its time.

Unfortunately, there are many uneducated rich people in Switzerland.
