My love-the New Orleans streetcars. I left NO a couple years ago but you know what it means to miss New Orleans.
When Obama said "The streetcars are rattling down St.Charles again" (or something like it) I got a bit teary. Man I love riding those old streetcars.
I got hundreds of pics of every inch of those things and Carrolton station. I have photos of the hands of the drivers on the controls. Old ladies-chins held high-going to work the same way they have gone since they were teenagers. Wish I knew how to upload.
Sorry to see Bush in NO yesterday. He doesn't deserve New Orleans. He should be banned from the glorious avenues of that city I love so well.

the disrespectful piece of crap who lives in the white house has no business coming here. whatsoever.
and yup, the 900s are just awesome. they're running on Canal now, because of the storm, until the 2000s get fixed. It's odd to see, but fun.

...and saw it. I don't like the red ones so much. Well of course I adore them but-love the greenies.

i thought they made a good balance, the classic on st. charles, the new ones on canal. Canal is the transit hub, the busiest line. Makes sense for it to have the new ones.
