Vintage Trolley

Yesterday was one of the few times a year that the Vintage Trolley was running. In other words, if you want to ride it, do it next Sunday because after that it won't run until one day in May, one day in July and then one day in September before the Christmas season begins again. I did a PSU-PSU trip.

Carter and I were on the trolley although a bit later. We started at Pioneer Square north, and then south to PSU.

New Conductor this year...

@ Steve - yeah I know... that's why I tracked you briefly!

@ Erik - I had the same guy that it's been, unless they were running 2 trolleys?

The Motorman (the guy driving the trolley) is the same, yes. With all of the pleasant, unofficial commentary that was not put over the P.A.

The Conductor (the guy in the back of the Trolley that opens the door and provides the "official" commentary over the P.A. system) is different.
