  this will never come to fruition because it just makes too much sense.
context: Street cars are just less useful busses for people who think they are too good for a bus.
  Anything a streetcar can do a bus can do. Plus a bus can do more. Problem on the track the street car line is block. Problem on the bus lane. The bus goes around. >
  
  Well, you know, there's nothing on earth 
  like a genuine, bona fide, electrified, six-car monorail. Whaddya say?? >

  Unless you have enough power to influence the automobile industry, streetcars will stay dead.
  The goal is not to make transportation better, but to maximize profits. >
  
  If we kept up with trains and we did with planes we could go coast to coast in 10 hours at least. >
  
  The rich use private jets, why would they care about your needs? Does it make them more money than selling more cars? >
  
  Car addicts will say no.    That is most Americans.   Upvoted.
  Even as a driver I wish I could park outside busy city centers and just hop on a street car and avoid all the madness of being in a car downtown.
  One caveat though...they have to operate until at least 2 a.m. >

  Like a bus? >
  
  That system also works. >
  
  I just mean why aren't you doing that right now? >
  
  I thought I was pretty clear about the 2 a.m. requirement.
  Also, we don't have anything like that here.   That sign suggests its conventient.
  And if you park here, it costs money.   It also costs for the bus.
  And the buses are infrequent, and don't stop near large parking lots..of which there are few here.
  My understanding was that with street cars, they did not even have stops really, you just just jump and off as you pleased.
  Edit:   Was looking for street car videos and I cannot find people getting on and off as its moving much.   Not sure where I got that idea. >
