Conductor lines of tsarist Russia times in Moscow
Specialists of "Mosgortrans" say cable network which supplies tram and trolleybus lines in the capital is on the verge of crisis.
Many cables which exhausted its resources long ago, stop working more and more often. The age of cable network which supplies all ground electric transport in Moscow in more than 100 years. There are still pre-revolutionary cables in exploitation which were installed in times of Nikolai II. It is interesting that "old-timers" work even better than improved modern. Nevertheless more than 600 kilometers of line need to be replaced.
