Here's where it was, just to show I'm not making this story up....

BR Ticket in Dejvicka Metro, Prague, CZ, 2009

09 Dec 2009 333
I've forgotten the full details of why I was in Dejvicka on this particular day, but often this is the first Metro station I get to after flying into Praha Ruzyne airport, although such was not the case on this day. Rather, I discovered a BR (British, Network Rail, etc.) train ticket dropped on the platform. Living in a major European city post-Schengen, you see all sorts of tickets from all the EU countries lying on the ground, but I liked this one because it reminded me of Britain. It wasn't the first one I had seen, and it probably won't be the last. I've also seen Paris and Brussels metro tickets lying on the floor of Prague Metro stations.

Also at Vitezne Namesti, coming out of the roundabout (which the trams obviously cross at a right angle to each other, straight through it in all four directions), is Skoda 14t #9132, which I don't think I've posted a photo of yet.

This is the other unrebuilt Tatra KT8D5 that I know of, #9030. This shot, like my photo of 9014, is at Vitezne Namesti.

The wreath laying was the central part of this ceremony, and this was the best shot I got of it.

I haven't taken too many military photos in the Czech Republic, for the obvious reason that I assume they don't like being photographed. In this case, though, it was a public occassion to remember those lost in World War II, at one of the war memorials in Vitezne Namesti. I took many photos of this, but only found two worth uploading since in most of the shots the soldiers themselves were blocking the view, and since I had my cameraphone I didn't have a zoom lens.
