This is the second tram I've done. This time I repeated the "X" (Kh) series tram. It was developed specifically for the city of Kharkiv, which is why the series got its name (Kharkiv in Ukrainian will be "Харків". The first letter is Х (Kh)). This tram is very similar to the "F" series tram, but unlike it, it is slightly larger and has a metal frame. This was due to the need to quickly develop the city's tram system. Later, the tram became widely used in many cities of the USSR.

The first tram went on the route in Kharkiv in 1928, and in 1933 only 226 of them worked in Kharkiv. After the Second World War, the tram was modified. They were discontinued in 1969, when a large number of more modern models appeared. Unfortunately, in Kharkiv, almost all trams of this type were decommissioned and sent for scrap metal at the end of the last century. Only 1 remained, which had to be thoroughly reconstructed in the 2000s. Today it is used as a tourist attraction, but it was seriously damaged during the russian-Ukrainian war.


Tram X in Kharkiv (2021)


I repeated it in the 1920s model, in the red color used in Kharkiv. It is well suited for decorating the city or for a museum.

I hope you like it!
