  • nice shots!

  • @craiggaryphotography Thanks ;-)

  • Do they still exist? I MUST to visit you. I always dream similar trams in my city (Rome) but I think to be the only one. Rome is the only city in the world with 7 cars for every 10 citizens. (and 6 tram routes only).

    WAIT FOR MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

    Vinicio, Rome, Italy

  • Glad you enjoyed the trolley video. They have become sort of a novelty here, rather than mainstream transportation. Their charm is undeniable. Take care.

  • @intheupperroom i didn't know that the 13 looks like the 15 thanks

  • @intheupperroom Don't lose them like we did in Chicago. They rock!

  • Great this video full of nostalgia! Congratulations!

  • nice video; good music too!

    my Dad would have loved it, as he used to operate trollies in Atlantic City back in the early 50's before they were discontinued there.

  • Took the 6 and 23 many times.

  • @ianjohn05 Trolley actually refers to the wheel not unlike one on a washing line, "Streetcar" is the normal word, like in Toronto, though their streetcars are technically called CLRV's Canadian Light Rail Vehicle

  • NICE VIDEO I THINK IT SHARES ALOT OF LOOKS WITH THE OLD BUSES

  • How did Philly and other cities manage to escape the bastards who rid other cities of trolleys?

  • @timosha21 Everywhere? This is one of those "NOT" jokes. HA HA! At least in the USA (Owned by GM and big oil)

  • @miezatb Trams is a European term.  trolleys is an American term. They mean the same thing. Although technically in Phil and SF they are referred to as LRVs, Light Rail Vehicles.
