Look at the craziness going on now. The city, I lived in for 56 years got rid of streetcars in 1958. Now they're spending millions building a new short route streetcar line. I guess that's progress!

Detroit is doing the same thing. GM forced the last streetcar line on Woodward to close in 1956. The equipment was all sent to Mexico where it was in use into the 80s.
Then the just recently built and opened the Q-Line, a streetcar that, lo and behold, follows the same damn routing as the old Woodward streetcar line. Stupidity.
