Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: Dvorce

This was a shot that I took not from the bridge (as in boat control room), but from behind it, as there are windows both in the front and the rear on the "Blanice."

The "Blanice" even had a PID logo on the side, which come to think of it is a bit unusual, as most PID services carry the markings of their constituent operators only.

This was the PID ferry for Cisarska Louka, the "Blanice."

While I was waiting for the ferry, I took a large number of duck and swan photos, and even a video or two. This was the one I decided to post.

I took the tram to Dvorce not to get another tram or bus, but actually to take one of the new PID (Prazska Intergrovana Doprava) ferries. These ferries have the same old DPP maps and schedule sheets as the trams, Metro trains, funiculars, and buses, even though they don't run officially under DPP. The DPP passes are, however, valid on them, same as on Ceske Drahy, as CD, DPP, and the ferries are what make up PID.

This is the old Dvorce weigh station, or so I'm told. it isn't actually for weighing trams or trucks, but actually for weighing boats. How it works, however, is unclear to me, as there doesn't appear to be a lock to put the boat in.
