I don’t want to detract anything from this tram photo, but I also know that with all the content floating around in the internet these days it’s easy to build unrealistic tram expectations.

I think this is two trams, each on their own line. Notice how the roof line steps down and the window reflections seem to change halfway through. I think they’re just very conveniently aligned for the photo to make it look like one double length tram.

Looking at the coach configurations & pantographs, I think it's actually 4.

These are running in Marocco and are double trams. They only have one cab and are coupled back to back.

On the picture, you have two double trams.

This thing is verging on becoming a train.

Reminds me of that one scene in Snowpiercer.
