Ugly? Ride this one and then the Melbourne tram you're waxing romantic about. This car rides smooth and quiet. The Melbourne tram, in Seattle or San Francisco is loud and hard to ride. Evocative, yes, romantic, yes. But that old San Francisco double ender painted in Philly colors is a delight to ride. And so are the the Melbourne cars. Ugly. I mean really, LRVs are ugly, boxy and plastic, PCCs are at least somewhat sensuous, if a bit broad...
Compare this video with "Red Arrow car 14."

did they keep using it since 1948 or did they re use them for a special?

Anyone else notice the "Nowhere in Particular" destination sign on the rear? LOL. Nice to know someone at MUNI has a sense of humor.

Now that is what I'd call an ugly tram. Not the Seattle one. Dave
