Description

E1 4520 and C3 1211 (the second oldest trailer car in service) depart from the streetcar stop "Quellenplatz" on a outbound line O service. A line which regulary confuses tourists as the "line zero". It's together with line D one of the two sole surviving streetcar lines in vienna that still got a letter instead of a number. (the politics thinking about changing theese letters to 3 and 4 ended up on protests xD)

The system remains up to this day in a quite weird number chaos as many lines had been replaced by prolonged other lines or metros, causing some sort of heavy gaps between the single numbers:

1-2-D-O-5-6-9-10-18-25-26-30-31-33-37-38-40-41-42-43-44-46-49-52-58-60-62-67-71 with 42 being the shortest line (not even 4km) to 6 being the longest (over 14km)

Why some lines had letters instead of numbers (and some two letters)?
