Description
Szeged has a trolleybus network consisting of 6 lines. Their fleet is quite heterogeneous (also quite old, as they only got second-hand vehicles since the arrival Ikarus-Škoda Tr187s in 2013-14) and my favorites out of them are the Škoda 15Trs.
The first Škoda 15Trs arrived to Szeged in 1993 as brand-new, 11 of them came back then. These were followed by 16 others in 2004, but those were all second-hand. The "new" Škodas had various backgrounds as they came from different Czech towns like České Budějovice, Hradec Králové, Teplice and Prešov (which is in Slovakia unlike the other 3). I'm unsure about how many of them can be used in passenger service, but about a little more than 20 of them still part of the fleet.
When I visited Szeged in this month, the water tower on Szent István tér was open for all visitors for free, so I checked it out. On the 'balcony' (I don't know how should I call it), there was a beautiful view and I decided to take some photos there. That's when I caught Škoda 15Tr no. T-612 on line 8. The concept was to include both the towers of the Votive Church and the passing trolleybus in the photo and I'm happy with the result. No. T-612 is my personal favorite from Škoda 15Trs as it has a more 'retro' look compared to the others.
