Horsetan Posted September 14 Posted September 14 Live, from Frankfurt, it's this year's European Tram Championships. There's a team representing Luas Dublin, so that will be a gas.... 2 Quote
Mayner Posted September 16 Posted September 16 I don't know about Ireland or the UK, but our largest bus company runs a bi-annual competition for the best Bus Driver in New Zealand. https://gobus.co.nz/page/36/go-bus-drivers-compete-for-the-crown Private event basically a Bus Drivers convention hosted several years ago at the local showgrounds, buses and drivers from all parts of the country. Trucking industry runs similar competition with international recognition and decent prizes! https://www.nztruckingassn.co.nz/driving-championships Quote
LNERW1 Posted September 18 Posted September 18 (edited) Why only trams? (And buses) Rail-based Formula 1 would be brilliant! Imagine a public transport Olympics… Bus handling, train speed tests, tram drivers dealing with heavy traffic, I could go on… Edited September 18 by LNERW1 Quote

LNERW1 Posted September 18 Posted September 18 Lol. I meant why not have a competition that’s not just meant for trams? Quote

If the logistics can be sorted out, why not? The venue would need to be centred on a tram/rail hub, though, as it's not exactly easy to move that kind of infrastructure around. 1 Quote
