Grayline Sightseeing replica trolley. Chicago Illinois USA. May 2006.

I took this photograph in early May of 2006 on Chicago's near southwest side. Seen behind a chain link fence at a local contract bus and truck repair shop at 33rd Street and South Pulaski Road, is a Grayline Sightseeing replica Trolley. These relatively inexpensive buses, built on a truck chasis, have become quiete populair in many citties around North America. These are fabricated to look like the old Electric Streetcars from the early 1900's and even feature a Trolley Bell. Clang Clang! The local Sightseeing Season in downtown Chicago and along the Lakefront was about to get started soon. This bus is proboubly getting a "Tune Up" before starting service.
