https://youtu.be/Z1OPVH9V6AI Although this sense of paranoia is fairly recent, the thought of stepping into an overcrowded bus or subway should probably strike fear and panic in most of us. Imagining "Public Transport" without the word "Public" can be difficult. How do you create a mass transit system that's bespoke, and that doesn't involve multiple people

 As I said in my previous post, we used public transit for all our transportation needs during our recent visit to San Francisco: buses, trams and rail. But then again, it was San Francisco, so I wasn’t surprised to see some more unusual public transportation options such as this Boat Tram which trundles along Read the Rest...
Cars Ruin Cities! Tire on Fire Poster, in a Traditional Flash Tattoo Style. Pink Color Palette/Colour Palette. Tyre on Fire (for the UK) For activists supporting urban planning initatives to remove cars from cities, they take up space, are less time-efficient, are more expensive and are worse for the environment than a well funded public transport-system. We love public transit, trains, busses (with exceptions) and trams!
In the workshop at Sydney Tramway Museum. Peter Witt trams represent an international design of tramcar. Developed by the commissioner of the transit organisation in Cleveland, USA around 1912, they were among the first vehicles to adopt passenger flow, whereby passengers enter by one door, move through the vehicle and alight from a different door.Considered very advanced for its time, the Peter Witt design was used by many cities in the USA and several in Europe. Milan had 502 Peter Witt trams, built in a short period between 1927 and 1930. (Melbourne built five trams to the Peter Witt layout at about the same time.) About 170 of these cars are still in use in Milan, the oldest trams in fleet service anywhere in the world. Their simplicity and reliability has led to them outlasting many newer tram types. Around ten Peter Witt trams from Milan are also in use in San Francisco on a tourist service to Fisherman's Wharf. Milan's trams are single-ended, but the Museums car has been modified to enable it to run on tracks laid out for double-ended trams. No. 1692 has been displayed at the Hawthorn Tramway Museum in Melbourne. It has run on special occasions in that city. Info source: Sydney Tramway Museum - Souvenir Guide - page 35
