So is that what it comes down to? Not "I'm already 30 seconds behind schedule and must make this green light" but "the next 12 is in nine minutes, idiot!"

How much of a difference is there between a full and empty tram in terms of controlling the machine?

Is it more stressful operating a tram than a bus? I mean, you can swerve out of the way in a bus...

Are there any trams that you'd like to have a chance to drive? Any particular favorite models? (Or least favorite?)

Much of the fighting in World War II happened in Belarus. The country was leveled. Whereas in many EE countries, the center is still a mix of old and new, Belarus is new, and new means Soviet. So many people were displaced in the war, and the fastest way to build housing and places to work was to build everything the same.
