"Misty Mornings"

In New Orleans, vintage electric rail cars are referred to as "street cars," never "trolleys." This distinct terminology reflects the pride that people from New Orleans take in being the first city west of the Allegheny Mountains to implement passenger rail service, which existed 60 years before the trolley. Of the several lines that run through the city, some feature maghonoy seats and exposed light bulbs, constantly reminding its riders of the town's rich history.
