Hello all ;
Here are some scenes from Porto, Portugal and it’s classic trolley system (there’s a high tech light rail too). Presently the classic system has 4 lines in operation, wich was reopened and revamped (1, 18, new line 22 -it did not exist before and uses track placed in streets where trams didn’t run previousely -,and tourist line T).

A little end note : some Oporto cars went to the Americas (Yakima, the now defunct Memphis system, Buenos Aires in Argentina and Santos in Brazil)
My only regret is that now cars seem to run in 'slow motion’mode versus the old habit of running full throttlewith the cars continuosly screaming
