TIL Melbourne has the largest tram system in the world, mainly because they didn’t dismantle it in the 1950s like most of the rest of the English-speaking world did.

I also particularly liked this part that goes into the history of streets (and trams). pointing out that streets aren’t actually “for cars” and never have been.

Most Americans understand the swing-out STOP signs on school buses: American trams with this type of stop could put one of those at the rear edge of the tram (on the curb side).
