5 czerwca 2009 - Liege (BE) – museum Natalis. The second prototype car. These are reported to have run many km on test at Jumet, but the whole project was kept very quiet, and it is difficult to find out much information today. Why was it suddenly abandoned, I wonder? ACEC is now part of Alstom, of course – perhaps they killed off the project when they took over? Now, Liege again has plans to reintroduce trams, or maybe make another attempt to build a metro.

5 czerwca 2009 - Liege (BE) – museum Natalis. The very odd wheel arrangement of the TAU cars. There were four independent driving wheels per car, each with a small guide wheel, designed to turn corners of only 10m radius. That would have been worth seeing! No VAL-style rubber tyres here, but just steel wheels on steel rails. Current collection was by outside third rail.

5 czerwca 2009 - Liege (BE) – museum Natalis. Inside VAU car 2 – like travelling to work in a cupboard! I think the outside dimensions are a little less than a Lille VAL car, which makes them very small indeed. Seven dwarves would fit OK, but Snow White would need to take the bus.
