[PRCo] European Trams

[Kenneth Josephson]

It's funny how those European systems grow on you after viewing them (or in some
members' cases, visiting them.) That Milan shot from Bob sure looked like downtown
Pittsburgh. (Back on topic.)

Carl noted in a couple of his tapes that one of the interurbans in Belgium was
reminiscent of some Pennsylvania trolley lines.

I do wonder if the DVD format and the arrival of HDTV will eventually allow direct
purchase and usage of CDs for viewing.

I wonder how many tapes Carl will need to cover Philadelphia or NYC (if he intends
to cover those systems)?
