20 march 2010 - Lisboa, Cais do Sodre: The impressive `toastrack` tram, now the last one remaining in Lisboa, on a rare trip outside its normal home in the Carris museum. These summer trams were built by Brill of Philadelphia, USA and shipped to Portugal in 1901. This tram had a very lucky escape - withdrawn from service in the early 1950s, it spent almost the next twenty years as a plaything in a city park until rescued for preservation in 1981. It is only used on sunny days (probably not because of the risk of rain damage, but because the drivers don`t like getting wet....)
