Valencia - Bombardier FLEXITY Outlook, 4208, tram 8, Plaza Armada Española (Valencia)

            Last weekend I visited the Spanish city Valencia and during the three day trip I managed to make some rides on the metro and tram. The city itself was very beautiful with a nice ambiance, and we had the luck that the weather was very good. 

The metro of Valencia (called Metrovalencia) dates from 1988 with the opening of the lines 1 and 2. Since then, the network has grown to six metro lines (line 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9) and three tram lines (4, 6, 8). The total network is 156 kilometers long and there are 137 stations and stops and the newest extension (the opening of metro line 9) dates from March 6th 2015. Line 4 was the first modern tram line in Spain and started its operations in 1994. In 2007 the network was expanded with a new tram line 6 (which is part of a new tram line 2) and in that same year a tram line 5 opened which operates as a short extension of metro line 5. In the meantime, the tram 2 project has stalled and tram line 5 was renamed in tram line 8.

With the opening of the tram network in 1994, 25 single end low floor trams were delivered by Siemens and CAF. In 2007 the fleet increased with 19 Bombardier FLEXITY Outlook trams which were part of an order of 30 trams in total (11 units have been delivered to Alicante). These trams run exclusively on tram line 6 and 8 (due to the absence of turning loops) and in smaller numbers on tram line 4. 

Tram line 8 is just a very short extension of metro line 5. There are only one or two trams running on the tram line which has only four stops, and three of the four stops are also part of the tram line 6 route. Here you can see the 4208 at the Grau - Canyamelar stop.
