    I know very little about anything train/rail related; it wouldn't generally be the sort of thing that interests me, but I really enjoyed this documentary.

    I'd imagine anyone with an already existing interest will love it!

    Watched this program & am now confused as most of them looked like trolleybuses instead of trams .:D

    When I think of trams I always think of cities like Brussels & Amsterdam or the newer systems like Luas, Metrolink Croydon Trams ect.

    Not a bus that travels on tracks :pac:

    Historically British and Irish trams were almost always double deckers, these days they are all eurotram clones.
