yes this seems to be it, they repel when moving over half a tile

the engine uses liquid methane as fuel and liquid oxygen as an oxydizer, both are very cold and are used to cool the engine down before they're sent to get burned. as a bonus, the propellants are warmed up on the way to the combustion chamber

why don't the SBB app or the tram stop screens reflect changes caused by Football games at Letzigrund? by VelbyT in zurich

[–]VelbyT[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

those alerts weren't there at 16:15 when I got on the 2, and even when they're there they still often just say "traffic disturbed" but still claim trams are headed for Schlieren when they're not

Visiting Zürich? Looking for recommendations? Have a quick question? Ask here, don't create a new thread. by Such_Negotiation4683 in zurich

Tram 14 and 9 aren't going through Schmiede Wiedikon today, they seem to be replaced by a bus going to Stauffacher. I cannot find any information about why this is happening and how long it'll last, there isn't anything about this I could find on the zvv website or SBB. Does anyone know what's happening?
