1 horsepower tram

One of the engineers introduced me to Monika, who pulls this tram only on special days. He also convinced us to buy tickets for a ride. Our housekeeper says that horse-drawn trams used to run on one of the main circuits in Pest.

Magnificent; I don't think I have ever seen one before working as it would have done. Just as well my passport is expired or I would be scrounging a bed

Monica is a strong and handsome engine! This looks like it would have been fun to go on. V

It is like a time machine ride, a joyful one. Join the others, never seen or heard anything like this before. Lights are fantastic. V
