Buses on rails?
published: Wednesday | November 26, 2003

THE EDITOR, Sir:

BUSES ON rails: are we returning to the end of the 19th century? Buses on rails sounds just like the tramcars I used to ride to school until about 1946 or '47. For the uninitiated, they ran from the bottom of King Street, or from Parade to Rockfort in the east, Constant Spring in the north and Papine (later Matilda's Corner).

Talk about recycling! After they were abandoned, nearly every front garden in St Andrew sported a tramcar bench!
