G'day Roger,
I was in Nice in 2008.
I was amazed by the tram caper at the Place Massena.
To prevent marring the atmosphere in the square, no dangling catenary.
The trams stopped each side of the square, dropped the pan and then rolled through, I presume on batteries.
Stopping to raise the pan once clear of the square.
I did not have spare time to explore the tram network.
But, I did cop; "Photo ont interdite" from security guards when attempting to aim me camera at La Gare Nice Ville.
Steering la voiture around the Cote d Azure was an interesting challenge.
Steve.
