The MTV-82 is a four-axle Soviet tram and the acronym is composed of the abbreviation of "Moscow Tramway Vehicle" with the original place of production, that is, the military factory No. 82. Production began in 1947 and in 1949 it was transferred to Riga where it continued until 1961. The exterior of the tram has a rounded bodywork with lines vaguely echoing the American PCC. It is one-way and equipped with two pneumatic ports placed at the ends. The main brake system is also pneumatic. Overall 13.6 meters long, 2.55 meters wide and 3 meters high, it has 40 seats (in some versions even 55) and a capacity of about 120 passengers.
