Opicina Tramway: Motor Car No. 2 at the Obelisk Heading to Opicina
Historic photograph of motor car no. 2 of the Opicina tramway, captured at the Obelisk stop while heading towards Opicina. The driver is visible on board the electric tram, powered by an overhead trolley wire. Several bystanders and uniformed personnel can be seen around the vehicle, set against the typical Karst vegetation. The Trieste-Opicina tramway, inaugurated in 1902, is one of Europe's most fascinating tram connections, overcoming a significant elevation difference between the city and the Karst plateau.

Year: 1903
