Interesting picture. The observation that it is/was the last single-track urban 
streetcar line, though, is not quite true. The Link line in Tacoma WA (2003) is 
single-track, non-segregated in city streets, with passing loops. Not your 
mother's streetcar, perhaps, and decades too late to compete with the Lincoln 
Place line. But an urban tramline nonetheless.
