How are these thingies called anyway?
Terry,
in
Germany (where this 'beast' comes from), they call them 'Strassenbahn'. That means in English simply 'Street-Railway'.
However, in the German speaking part of
Switzerland (that's where I come from
) they are normally called 'Tram'.
Well, and how would YOU call them in America (or England, or Australia, or...)?
Traction Car? Streetcar? Tramway? UPTRGV (Urban People Transporting Rail Guided Vehicle
) or another crazy acronym?
Hey, come to think of it - this is really something I don't know!
So come on and tell us all, how YOU are calling WHERE these electric traction peoplemovers?
