Czestochowa
The first 129Nb tram was delivered to Czestochowa by the morning of March 13, 2012 . The first tests were scheduled at night from March 13 to March 25, 2012. But to get started, it was necessary to replace the contact network in the city, because the cars were made in a fundamentally different design, in contrast to the “Konstal” trams that used to work in Czestochowa . In early May, passed a 30-day trials with passengers .
Moscow
PESA was supposed to produce 120 Twist trams of modification 71-414 (Fokstrot) for Moscow [1] , but until January 2015 only 60 arrived in Moscow. In order to comply with Russian legislation restricting government procurement of equipment manufactured by countries outside the EAEU , a contract was signed between Uralvagonzavod and PESA for joint tram production. Thus, although all the actual work was done in Poland, the tram is considered Russian according to the documents. However, due to the fall of the Russian ruble that began in the second half of 2014, UVZ could not fully pay for its order with PESA, which led to the termination of the contract by Moscow [2] . The company produced 90 trams in their entirety and 30 trams in the form of a complete body structure. At the end of 2016, after some strengthening of the ruble, another 10 trams were delivered, after which Moscow refused to supply further trams. Today, similar Vityaz-M wagons of the fully Russian design are delivered to Moscow .
Kiev
The implementation variant of the trams that did not arrive in Moscow in the capital of Ukraine arose due to the same technical requirements. In 2016, Kiev purchased 10 Pesa trams [3] , which received model type 71-414K. At the end of 2017, 26 more trams entered the city. All trams operate at the Tram Depot. Shevchenko.
