Streetcar Approaching

First let me thank so many of you for your comments on my picture from yesterday of the ice sculpture and for all the favs.
As winter has arrived here with the snow and cold wind the only little bit of time I went outside today was to shovel the snow at my Mom's place.
So I decided to use another one from yesterday. The Ice Festival has two locations one on the southside and one on the northside at the Legislature grounds. They have the High Level Bridge Street Car running between both locations for the duration of the festival. So as we were standing in the snow waiting for it to arrive I decided to take this picture of the streetcar as it arrived. So I took this shot and then changed the setting on my camera to a night setting and took another one. However I decided that There was something about this shot with the headlights showing and the lights on the inside of the car showing up a little that just appealed to me so this is what I went with for today.
Trust you all had a good weekend and that you will have a great week

:) It is mysterious

There is no better way to travel around a city than by a trolley! LOVE this shot!

@dbp46016 We used to have trolleys in Edmonton so I do wish this one actually travelled farther than it does
