Which brakes are used to soft stop the tram at the tram stop?

Explanation

Correct answer: The electrodynamic brake and in the final phase the parking brake.

The electrodynamic brake is the primary service brake of a tram, allowing for smooth and precise speed reduction. However, its effectiveness diminishes at very low speeds, therefore, in the final phase, a mechanical parking brake is used to bring the vehicle to a complete stop and hold it stationary at a stop.
