The sun tries to shine in East Berlin

Today East Berlin seems very much like West Berlin, but even when the sun shone it could be pretty depressing in the old days. However it is another bit of the world that has changed for ever, and one could cite it as another 'German Miracle' the way they managed to not only modernise the old DDR but to make Germany not on the most successful but the key driving force in the EEC. Like the once ubiquitous and now gone Hungarian Ikarus buses these Eastern-Block Czech built trams are staring to look rather dated even in updated colours.
