I am a tram fan! I’m a regular user of the south London tram system (and if you want to embed enthusiasm for public transport in the next generation, take a 6-year old on the tram and watch their mind bring blown as it goes from its own track to one along the road alongside cars)

My favourite thing about trams is that you can be fairly sure they're not going to get stuck in a traffic jam or take a random detour. Where I live (outside Aylesbury) the local council are constantly trying to fix the chronic congestion by telling people to get the bus, but the only thing the bus offers is a slightly higher-up view of the same traffic jam you'd be stuck in if you drove.
