Old Metro Train Builder Plate
Title:  Old Metro Train Builder Plate
Description:  This is the builder plate of the old Russian Metro train. While the Krylice may be hard to read if you dont know Russian, note that the date of construction was 1976, meaning that while this train is much older than whats running now, it wouldnt have been one of the original ones from 1974.

Old Metro Train in Haje
Title:  Old Metro Train in Haje
Description:  For the 35th anniversary of the Prague Metro (or at least some anniversary or another, as Ive looked up one source that claims the Metro started operations in 1974), DPP got their oldest Metro train out of storage to do some commemorative runs, and miraculously, it seemed to make it through the day without being trashed, unlike a second-generation train on its recent last run. Being Russian-made, these trains were originally designed for the Moscow Metro, and similar trains can also be seen on the Budapest metro.

DPP 2500, Last Russian Prague Metro Train in Radlicka,
Title:  DPP 2500, Last Russian Prague Metro Train in Radlicka,
Description:  While if I'm not mistaken this wasn't the last day for this unrebuilt Russian train to run (supposedly it was pulled from service on July 2nd, 2009), it was close to the very last. Supposedly the graffiti was cleaned off for the final run. Now these are consigned to history....sort of. The A and B lines are still worked exclusively by them in rebuilt form. The only truly recent trains on the Metro are on the C line.
