20 april 2002 - Bruxelles, Belgium – depot and museum Woluwe. Tram 7047 from the first batch of Bruxelles PCC cars when still in original colour. Last week, it was stated that regular use of 7000-class trams will end this winter – your last chance to ride these classic and very historic PCCs if you can, the first in Europe and a big influence on the development of Konstal and Tatra PCCs. There are just a few left!Bruxelles, Belgium – depot and museum Woluwe. Tram 7047 from the first batch of Bruxelles PCC cars when still in original colour.

25 march 2012 - Brussel/Bruxelles (BE) – Avenue de Tervueren. The real thing – this is the latest, very fine restoration by the Bruxelles tramway museum workshops, who have recreated a 7000-series PCC in almost wholly original form – only the window winders aren’t exactly as built. Note the absence of a pantograph, as these weren’t fitted until later.Brussel/Bruxelles (BE) – Avenue de Tervueren.
