  • I wish we had more trams in London. The old ones disappeared back in 1952, and now we only have a small network around Croydon.

  • Yes, but you have a fantastic system all around. Love riding the tube while I'm there and will do shortrly as I depart for England next Saturday. I'll try to post more of these.

  • Good to see the service back on track.

    Is it still free or are they pushing fares now?

  • They've outfitted the trolleys with the Charlie Card fare collectors and are supposed to charge a fare. They seem to consistently unless there is a large group of people waiting at Ashmont. They tend to just let all the doors open then.

  • Thank you for this! Great to know the cars have returned!

  • Tell me about it. We live about 100 yards up the street from Central Ave station and were a little concerned that the T would pull a "Silver Line" on us and take them away for good and replace the cars with bus service. The trolley shuttle bus we had for over a year was a nightmare. Glad to hear you appreciated the video!
