Motorman on Saint Charles Avenue
Title:  Motorman on Saint Charles Avenue
Description:  Theres a wonderful variety of styles in working the controller among these men and women; this guy would practically start in notch 2, be in serial running after about a second, pause an instant, then apparently just get bored and swing it right around into parallel running! Its actually imressive how these 85 year-old cars can go when they open up.

Busy evening at Carrollton & Claiborne Avenues.
Title:  Busy evening at Carrollton & Claiborne Avenues.
Description:  The motorman of the car I just got off changes poles while the car behind us waits for a terminal track. 3:1 streetcar-to-bus ratio seems good to me.

New Meets Old
Title:  New Meets Old
Description:  Only six of the new cars have been rebuilt after spending 2 weeks in 5 of water courtesy of Katrina; the 1923-24 Perley Thomas cars are still covering all three lines. I wonder how many New Flyer hybrid busses will be in revenue service in 2093.
