I counted five cars to the right of where the conductor is perched on the step plates. That would mean all nine operableold timers were in that train.

Hallelujah! Nine cars at last! I see they left the summer consist cars in the same order and tacked on the Transit Museum trio at one end. IINM 1000 had its wheels turned a month or so ago.

I just made it to 2nd Ave for the 10 am first trip by about 4 minutes. I got on the train and was appauled by the number of people on the train, talking and taking pictures. I tried to find a car with some decent compressor sounds, but was distracted by all the people's rumbling. I got off at Broadway Lafayette went over to the other platform to go back to 2nd Ave to retrieve my bike. But then I noticed the conductor working the door controls and i found my sounds. It was a successful day.

I always loved to watch the conductor do his stuff while perched on the step plates.

Had I grown up in LA, chances are I may have remembered when streetcar service ended. I was six when that happened and I do remember back that far.
