The model was made in response to an order of Municipal Engineering Museum in Cracow. The exact projection of each detail of the construction, its interiors and equipment took a whole year. The effect can be seen in the Museum, where it has become a part of permanent exhibit. The author is Rafal Kalinowski.

Trams Tw (SN 3) in the amount of 10 units had been running in Nuremberg from 1909 until late 1930s, gaining a reputation for passengers and engine drivers. Wagons were marked with numbers 141-150. Trams in Nuremberg used to be commonly called “zeppelins”. Currently in Nuremberg there is one exhibit vehicle bearing the number 144, which was restored in Cracow in 1984.
