I have had my pictures copied by many people. Most of them had either the courtesy to either let me know or to refer to my post.

Back to the tram cars! While I was following this tram car on foot, it’s passengers were nice enough to give me their smiles. It’s true they were enjoying the ride on an “open sleigh”.
