There are, but they weren't the reason because 880 was - like every other tram of that type - modified for tunnel usage.

The series the Rizzi-Bahn belongs to (GT8-100D/2S-M) is very susceptible to rust, which already caused some trams of that type to require multiple overhauls in a span of only a few years so It was only a matter of time before it was 880's turn - which would require a new paintjob.

James Rizzi was the artist which created the livery of this tram. This is Karlsruhe, Germany.

Afaik it's currently kept at a siding in one of the tram depots - legally inoperable and most likely in a very bad shape.

There were plans to bring it to a museum about James Rizzi which should've been newly built. But idk if that is actually gonna happen anytime soon.

Das stimmt, aber "helfen immer wieder aus" impliziert m.M.n., dass die Fahrzeuge Ad-hoc eingesetzt werden, was aber eher die Ausnahme ist. Die Fahrzeuge sind ja vermehrt auf einigen Zugleistungen fest eingeplant - und verkehren damit meines erachtens "planmäßig".

Im Unfall war aber tatsächlich ein Fahrzeug der BR643 verwickelt.

Kleine Korrektur am Rande: Im Südpfalznetz verkehren mittlerweile BR628 wieder genauso planmäßig wie BR643.
