| 2-12. New Depot 1. Left to right: KTM-2, LM-68, KTM-2, LM-68, KTM-1 and LM-68 cars. The new depot was opened in 1966 to substitute for the old one nearby. The old Depot remained a long-term maintenance shop, while the new facility housed cars serving the mainland part of the network. It remained the only passenger car Depot ever since 1982-83, when the Depot 2 in Solombala stopped servicing passenger cars. It remained the only Depot in the city from the early 1990s on, when the Solombala Depot closed for good. (Arkhangel'skoe TTU, from Aleksandr Morozov collection, circa 1970s) |

| 2-15. New Depot 1. LM-68 train 112+ and LM-68 car 123. Arkhangelsk received a number of sharp modern-looking Leningrad-built LM-68 cars at the turn of the 1960s/1970s. These cars arguably looked somewhat ahead of their time, but they were known to be structurally weak. These deliveries stopped as the city of Leningrad, which possessed the largest tram system in the world, found itself starved for rolling stock. (Arkhangel'skoe TTU, from Aleksandr Morozov collection, circa 1970s) |
| 2-16. New Depot 1. Left to right: LM-68, RVZ-6 and RVZ-6 cars. After LM-68s were no longer available, Arkhangelsk had to settle for more durable but rather obsolete-looking Riga-built RVZ-6 cars ('6' stands for the year 1960). The RVR factory never implemented a new design since the 1960s, as according to state plans tram production there was expected to cease anytime, but nevertheless continued until 1988. Many wonder if such course of events affected the fate of Arkhangelsk network, as it ended up getting stuck with trams of 'old' design that was cute, but contributed to the image of trams being obsolete 'dinosaurs'.
