Posted - Jan 28 2009 : 7:45:45 PM Hello All,
Today a small Kiev Vega I bought arrived to me. It is an early 1st version, serial No. 09015. It has an inscription in Ukrainian and Vlad has given me a loose translation, but I'm wondering if anyone here reads Ukrainian and can give the exact translation, or close to it? Thanks for any help and here are some photos:

Regards, Bill

Posted - Jan 29 2009 : 12:11:00 PM My pleasure Bill! Just a few details, I've spoken to a friend of mine who is from Ukraine originally he said the the first word means "Most respected" and just to correct Okynek it's "Trams" not Trolley.. There are all kinds of trams but Trams mentioned here are the ones on rails (similar to cable cars in your home town Bill, but driven by electricity like Trolleys).
