Old milepost

This milepost on Slokas street in Riga holds two traffic lights and a bell that makes you think that they are at least 50 years old and haven't been used for a long while. It is unclear whenever they still work, but the milepost also holds two modern road signs. In fact this milepost is for a fire brigade that is located just next to it.

A house to switch tram tracks

The job of the woman in this small house is to switch tram tracks so that trams can either enter or leave the depot. Located on the busy Brīvības street in Rīga it caused traffic jams. Recently new tracks were built to divert trams into the depot without a need of a manual switch. It means this house can disappear any day soon.

Riga's tram

This is an experimental tram that was build in Riga and was even seen taking a drive but in the end was never put in mass production. Today it rots behind the walls of some factory.
