This tram goes up a steep hill. On the ground you can see a third line of "tracks". Those a for a gear the tram uses to pull itself up the hill. It's the only one in Stuttgart that has that. Because that hill is so steep, they allow bikers to take their bike with them and because many use that offer, they added the extra bike carriage.
