If you like this you might like to see the very old classic tram lines at portuguese cities ! The tram came and rings the bell , the people took their chairs out of the way in an absolutely unhasty manner , the tram passes, they sat down again to havea drink and another go on backgammon ! Marvellous !
I saw that scene many years ago and believe me , it took place but i was so impressed I´ve forgotten to take pictures !
cheers Joe

Steve you need to spend a day drinking coffee at the Starbucks on Jack London Square in Oakland Ca, Best street running spot in the country.

Wheel spinning and going through a red light was quite normal.

Hong Kong Street Running

I like these real operating light railways wether the are transporting sugar canes, woodbranches, sand , clay or ore ! Light railways fascinate me and ever will ! Sadly there were not very much left ! :frowning:

cheers Joe

Cool video, Tony! It’s amazing to see that old time steamer running up the middle of a busy, modern city street!

Putting a short section of a garden layout track in a street scene would be different and certainly appropriate.

Nice videos. Thanks for posting.

There is some interesting street running in Stockton Ca. I’ll be up there again late summer. Will see if I get a chance to film some of it and post.
