Russian city Saratov: world's last bus Ikarus-283, cool trolleybuses and falling apart trams

If you have ideas how to improve this text, write in comments, please. On May 28 and 29, 2022, Bus Master and I, as well as TOTAL expert Marat, visited Saratov. Our main goal was Ikarus buses. At the time of our visit, there were 6 Ikarus buses in Saratov: 2 Ikarus-260, 2 Ikarus-280, as well as Ikarus-415 and Ikarus 283. The accordion bus Ikarus-283 is the most interesting bus in Saratov, as it is the last bus of this model in the whole world that carries passengers. We were able to catch all the Ikarus buses, took a ride in the LAZ-695 bus, as well as in the Mercedes O405G - a cool used accordion bus from Germany. Also in this video I will show you a modern Russian trolleybus "Admiral", capable of driving up to 15 kilometers without a contact network; I will show the half-dead tram system of Saratov, and also go to the railway to catch the EP1, VL80S locomotives and the cool ED9M electric train.
