I spent 2 days in St.Augustine, Fl. on a mini vacation & rode this Tram around town. Nice looking locomotive for a park on your layout. Only problem you would have to scratch-build it.

Might be Jay, I haven't been down there for about 50 years. I was stationed at the Naval Air Station the latter part of 1958 & the early part of 1959. Was discharged from there.
 


Its alot like the one they used to have in Biloxi except it was a little longer (had 3 or 4 cars i think.) Last time I was down there was 3 months before Katrina who knows if its still there. :)
 
This one is owned by the Ripley museum. They had about 5 diff. ones. Some had 4 wheels in the back, some had diff. kinds of cars & some were black. I saw at least 20 sets of trams in one place. The tourist season in St.Augustine is starting to slow down a little since most of the Snowbirds are going home.
