Exciting Disciplines
Every day, tram drivers expertly keep 40-tonne vehicles on track, ensuring passenger safety. This requires extensive knowledge, skill, concentration, and the ability to remain calm under pressure. These abilities are tested across seven disciplines at the Tram World Championship.
Skill and Enjoyment: A Winning Combination
The challenges include dexterity tasks (e.g., target braking) and fun activities (e.g., trambowling), ensuring both skill and enjoyment.
Points and Time Count
In each discipline, the goal is to accumulate as many points as possible to secure victory. The total time per round is also measured and factored in—the faster all disciplines are completed, the more points are awarded.
Scoring
Each discipline is overseen by a neutral referee.
The Vehicles
The vehicles used are always those of the host country—in this case, a Flexity tram and an ULF (Ultra Low Floor) from Wiener Linien.
