Technical specifics

LM-68M is a wide gauge (1,524 mm (5 ft)) high floor, continuously welded four axle tram. Its body differs from the LM-68 body by an emphasized frame and removed glass on the roof, which created a lot of problems in use. The LM-68M is identical to LM-68 in its pneumatic equipment. The LM-68M tram has 35 seats and is capable of transporting 206 passengers when fully loaded. LM-68M cars are 15 meters (49 ft) long, 2,550 millimeters (100 in) wide and 3,170 millimeters (125 in) high; net weight is 19.5 tonnes. The tram is capable of working as a multiple traction system.

Modifications
  • LM-68M — one side, or single ended tram.
  • 71-881 — double ended, two-cab version of LM-68M. Used in Cherjomushki (Sayano-Shushinskaya hydro-electric station) and in St Petersburg.

gollark: I'm not sure about reproducible (the build config for a project probably won't specify precise versions for all compilation stuff) but declarative, yes.
gollark: Basically, you specify all your configuration in a declarative purely-functional language, which is then translated into actual system config.
gollark: One really cool thing I use on a server is NixOS.
gollark: Yes, because they compile the binaries on their end.
