Incentro AT6/5

Bombardier Incentro trams were designed and built by ADtranz for the Tramway de Nantes in 2000–2001, and the AT6/5 is almost identical but 3.4 metres shorter. In 2000 ADtranz signed a package deal for the construction of the NET tramway and for the delivery of 15 trams but in 2001 before work began ADtranz was acquired by Bombardier Transportation, which carried out the construction and manufacturing work between 2002 and 2003.[3] The trams entered service on 9 March 2004 and run on 750 volts DC with a top speed of 80 kilometres per hour (50 mph). They are articulated in five sections, and are 33 metres long and 2.4 metres wide.[4]

Names

From a very early stage, the trams were named after famous local people.[5] Vinyl transfers carrying the names are on diagonally opposite corners of the exterior. Upon introduction they were also on the front (in direction of travel) right-hand side above the windows, in the same style as advertisements.

Refurbishment

In December 2012, NET announced that the fleet would be refurbished and receive a new livery and interior. The first to be refurbished was tram 215, which was released for passenger service on 8 March 2013. Trams 214, 213, 205, 202, 203 have since been refurbished.

The 22 new Alstom Citadis 302 trams, built for the tramway extensions are in the new livery. The refurbishment had been planned for a while, as the artist impressions of the new trams showed that their seating was the same as the seating in the refurbishment – the impressions were released in June 2012.

A further refurbishment of the Incentro trams began in 2019, with tram 203 being the first to be treated. The refurbished Incentro trams have had mechanical work undertaken as well as a new livery, to make the trams look more similar to the Citadis fleet.[7][8]
