Description I took these pictures of trolleys in the parade because of my interest in colllecting evidence of how the first train wagons, trolleys and buses were modeled after houses (or were in any case a celebration of architecture). I think that's an amazing topic, and I am sure somebody has already written about it. I have thought a lot about it lately, and whenever I find evidences I am documenting.
