Manually switching is not how it's usually done, but it's quite often sight in Zagreb. There is a switch on the tram's control panel. As the driver slowly approaches to the direction switch, he moves the control switch to the right in order to switch the direction switch, or to the left if it needs to stay as it is. Basically, the tram gives an "electric shock" to switch mechanism and so it moves left and right based on direction that driver chooses. There are occasions like this when direction switches don't work whether they're broken, the driver gave signal too early, or they are manual only (only two manual switches exist in Zagreb, one on the turning point "Maksimir", and the second one on turning point "Heinzelova street"). The one you're reffering to in the video is on Savska road and it's electrical. Since two drivers in a row had to manually change the switch, it's probably broken.
Great stuff 👍
Thank you!
