I stopped by this weekend and this pretty much sums up what people have come to expect from this location.

So when I saw this video of the trolley running only a few blocks from where I live I was fascinated.

My only complaint is that the guy who posted it is a kind of a nut job and doesn’t appear to have any similar videos so don’t waste your time looking through his posts.
