Is that a Czech tram on the lower line? Or licensed from it? Come on, it must be. It looks full CKD.

Wow.
It's used as tram, or more like a urban rail system? I think it isn't the best construct for its current duty.

Using tram system as metro is really a short sighted move. Even monorail would carry more passengership than this "metro".
Super 8 videos of the old Bielefeld tram from 1986, just before it was converted to a Stadtbahn system with underground sections. You can see some of the construction sites in the video. The newer vehicles are still in use today.
