 | 7-04. Troitskiy Pr. / Teatralniy Per. RVZ-6M2 408+410 Line 2, Gagarina-bound. At the time of this photo only three 2-car consists were found providing rush hour-only service via Line 2. Otherwise, the service was carried on by single cars only. Despite a popular charge of tramway infrastructure's deterioration along Troitskiy Prospect, which was the main excuse for closing the line, the southern section of Troitskiy Pr., between Voskresenskaya Ul. and Profsoyuzov Pl., was recently completely rebuilt in accordance with the latest track maintenance technology applied in Russia. Nevertheless, the line was torn out and dismantled about two years after this photo was taken. The second car 410 is the newest tram of RVZ-6M2 type in the city, delivered in 1987.

Arkhangelsk's symbol and main attraction, the famous skyscraper in the heart of the city, with the city government offices in the background. Occupants of the latter building, known for their dislike for noisy passing trams, are largely responsible for strangulation of Arkhangelsk tramway network. (Aleksandr Morozov, July 2002) |
 | 7-08d. Troitskiy Pr. / Voskresenskaya Ul., Lenina Pl. RVZ-6M2 369+39X Line 2, Zharovikha-bound. This 2-car set will be uncoupled a month later as the system cuts back on a number of trains in mid-2002. Many "professional" trailers such as the one pictured in this photo, were re-fitted for solo operation. (Yaroslav Luchenetskiy, 13 May 2002) |

 | 7-09b. Troitskiy Pr. / Lenina Pl. LM-93 520+513 Line 2, Zharovikha-bound. This train set will also be uncoupled a month later as a part of the uncoupling campaign mentioned above. During the last two years of service prior to the system's closure, LM-93 cars operated solo only. All but one former LM-93 motored trailers (with exception of 507), however, did not fare well as single motor cars, and after a brief period of solo operation, ended up parked at the Depot indefinitely. These cars were apparently mechanically overwhelmed after years of being pushed around as trailers. LM-93 motored trailers could be recognized by odd fleet numbers, while lead cars had even numbers.
