That's not so cheap! With inflation from then about 25X, it's about like now. I remember when I was first driving, about 1967, there was a price war in the Tacoma area, and I bought gas once at $.16.9 :D

The scene looks great! As always coming from you.

What's amazing, Mykel, is the number of cities bringing them back. This website makes for interesting reading: http://www.heritagetrolley.org/ (don't let the title fool you). I expect we'll see more of this, as more and more people get tired of gridlock. -Phil
