Hello,

last Saturday I visit Mülheim (An der Ruhr), a town in the Ruhrgebiet. With a small group, we had organized a spezial ride in a tram. We hired a GT6, produced by DUEWAG (1964). At first a map from Mülheim:

We started our tour at the depot. This route from the depot to the station "Stadtmitte" is not on the map!
