I think I have identified the location of the Prague trams coronavirus
video that Mark posted in April 2020. Today I was exploring parts of the
Prague tram network on Google Earth and was locating the depots and
workshops with the help of the track plan that you had posted. Looking at
the vicinity of the tram workshops (Opravny Tramvají, lat: 50.072120 lon:
14.531745 ) I noticed a multiroad open stabling area on the eastern side of
the workshops with a motley collection of about 50 trams. By default
Google Earth displays imagery from 30 Jun 2019. Historic imagery from 2018
shows the site as a grassed area. By March 2020 a new building had been
completed on the north side of the yard which seems to match the buiding on
the left of the video. The track layout of the yard with a single track
feeding into the curved fan also seems to match the video.

When I looked at the imagery of Hloubětín tram depot (lat: 50.108586
lon:14.530043) in GEarth I saw that the concrete roof of the depot was in a
collapsed state! A Google search revealed that the structure had been in
poor condition and that the roof was demolished with explosives in August
2019. I understand that it is intended to replace the depot complex. I am
wondering whether the stabling yard at the Workshops was constructed to
accomodate trams displaced from Hloubětín. Recent imagery of Hloubětín
shows trams stabled in the fan at the front of the demolished depot!
