    I loved picture number 8. Will we be seeing Zimmerman, Hinshaw, Taff, Geisler, and McCullough on future cars?

    This from the head of the new rail and ugly wire/pole operation: “I hear the driving is easy in Milwaukee ….”. Truer words were never spoken, but the statement is somewhat incomplete.

    I might amend that statement for him a bit: “I hear the driving has been easy and pretty inexpensive in Milwaukee. Of course, the driving will be a challenge once we get all the loading stations put smack dab into the traffic flow”, said he, as he turned his ankle stepping into a pothole.

    I missed seeing the accident, but not all the broken glass and broken auto parts still littering our corner today, right at the end of the partially completed streetcar loading platform. Not too disappointed, though, there will be plenty of others in due time.
