	Car 1834 was the first one here in SF quite a few years ago.   Don't need
to do that imagining   ---   For Many Months, Maybe Even Years, every time
that car came on the scene my heart lept   ---   thought it  WAS  a Jones
Car!   (It also took me years to get over the motorized cable cars when I
got here in the 1970s   ---   how did a cable get on Market
Street?!?!(:->))

	Viewed all your pictures and was more awe-struck with the continual beauty
of Melbourne (was there for 2-weeks in 1967) and the very strong emphasis
on trolleycar transit!
