Christmas Tram

Every year the Christmas Tram operates on several lines from just before Christmas until January 6. This was taken at Batthyány tér, on the Danube. The train wasn't at the stop too long, though, so the next evening we returned to try for some better shots and chased the train to its terminus, then attempted to photograph it on its way back to Batthyány.

Terrific image, Helen. You were so lucky not having any people near the front of the tram. I think that I will suggest this to RTD here in Denver, for the Christmas 2013. Excellent captured. V.
