I just put your town name into Google's image search. You can get more images from your town there.

Hehe I love the public transport there, everyone gets packed like sardines into "trolleybuses," which are electric buses that use overhead lines like a streetcar but drive on roads.

Used to be trollies in Newcastle, Northumberland UK - and in London there used to be trams - long time ago!

March of ''progress''?

'Frisco still has right idea.
Ain't technology great - until it goes wrong!

Right now, they also have a bunch of hybrid buses.
In my home town, we don't have trolleys, but a lot of tram lines.

    And, there's always the Duquesne incline in Pittsburgh, Pa - my hometown (actually, Mt. Lebanon)

    If you don't have time to do it right
                    ...when will you have time to do it over?

      The "incline," starts at the top of Mt. Washington and goes down 400 feet, in 800 feet! At the top, the view is wonderful, overlooking the Pittsburgh "Golden Triangle," where the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers come together to form the Ohio River.

      If you don't have time to do it right
                      ...when will you have time to do it over?

      This is something here in Hong Kong.

      The Peak Tram. Goes up a mountain. It can get pretty steep.
