I’m out of new stuff. It’s just too hot for these old bones to get back out on the street so I pulled a trolley picture from the archives. Our streetcar system was long gone when I got here for college in 1967. In the last several years, local boosters developed this trolley line from the history museum to the end of the Delmar Loop district. It was a boondoggle, way late and over-budget. It runs down the center of a busy street without the kind of appropriate stop structures you find in Europe. I thought it was shut down, but I was pleased to find it still running.

I was just a girl when living in mid-town St. Louis to take the trolly downtown for shopping with my mother. I liked their little ding-ding warnings.
Old, new or reposted it's all wonderful this is a beauty too! We have a few of these old greats around and we can still take a ride too!
Looking great!
