The Old Trams

Some of the trams in Milan are quite new and slick, some of the trams are pretty awesome and old.

While the 2 is old and grotty, the 1, the 23, and the 33 at least have a real vintage feel. They have great, original-looking wooden interiors. Wooden benches, varnished to a high shine, sliding windows, and glass lamps.

I really love the lamps. They look like they belong at an old lunch counter or something.

While the surface trams here are pretty slow, I still like taking them. Especially these ones with the vintage interiors. But I even like taking the 2, screeches and all, because I like seeing the city. You feel like you're getting to know the town. It's good people-watching, too.
