Friday 19th April ~ Rainy day in Warsaw, then back to London.

Last day in Warsaw. Started with type 105N tram (2050 +)  2051 on line 26, from Plocka to Park Praski, just across the Slasko Dabrowski bridge in Praga. Then I walked back west across the bridge...

1996 built 105Nm tram 1458 + 1457 on line 18, heading east across the Slasko Dabrowski Bridge

2007 built 123N tram 2160+2161 ( I rode on this yesterday) on line 26, exits the Trasa W-Z Tunnel into Stare Miasto tram stop

Unfortunately I lost my records for the next few rides. After a walk round the Nowego Miasta (New town), and across Saxony Park, I found myself at Krolewska tram stop, where I boarded a tram for Ratusz Arsenal.

1992 built 105Ni tram 2008+2009 at Ratusz Arsenal with westbound line 23

Then it was another tram from Ratusz Arsenal to Plocka... Time now to head back to London. I boarded a line 8 tram from Plocka to Pl. Zawiszy. Then a short walk to Warsaw Ochota, where I waited a while then boarded a Class 27WE 'Elf' Emu to Warsaw Lotnisko Chopina (Chopin Airport).

Got to the plane on a terminal-plane transfer bus, then it was onto Ryanair Boeing 737-800 EI-DAR with the 21.10 from Warsaw to London Stansted Airport. After arrival back in the UK it was onto  Terravision Irizar coach from Stansted to Victoria, arriving at Victoria around midnight. Nightbus time now, at Victoria I boarded Gemini-2 DW234 on the N38 and took it to Piccadilly Circus, then walking across Leicester Square to catch Enviro400 T228 on the N279 at 01.04 for the ride back to Manor House.
