Trains or trams
Trains, but also get out of here with your European bullshit it's called a Trolley/Streetcar
Anyway Interurbans are Both (and really a Streetcar is just a subset an order of trains)

WHAT I WANT BACK ARE THE STREETCARS LUXURY SLEEPER TRAINS, ELECTRIC RAILROADS AND TROLLEY BUSES!!!! GIVE THEM BACK!!!! BRING BACK THE STREAMLINERS
Y'know, the funny thing about all this "RETVRN TO THE 1950S" shit is that it's all "THIS IS WHAT THEY TOOK FROM YOU" when nothing in the pictures was actually taken away.
You can dress like a '50s guy and style your hair with Brylcreem if you really want. There's no law against that. You can raise a family in suburbia and cook hotdogs in the backyard. In fact, you've been able to do that for so long that it's kinda ruined the country by blighting the land with terrible housing developments and infrastructure. It would be hard to argue that any other lifestyle in the US has been more catered to and facilitated than the suburban nuclear family.

Kon deciding to go to college in Gotham to be closer to Tim, and having to experience the weird little quirks of daily life in Gotham City
Kon: This woman on the train had a bucket of water containing a live fish???
Tim, who's thoroughly used to this: She's so right for that actually
Bernard: Yeah she just wanted a friend, who are you to judge?

Mercury El Gato Concept, 1970. A fastback proposal for the future of the Cougar presented at the Chicago auto show, the El Gato (Spanish for cat) kept the “side spear” from the first generation Cougar mixed with LTD full width taillamps broken on the left by a racing-style filler cap. Meanwhile Mercury's product planners were sending the production Cougar in an entirely different direction.

also isn't it so romantic for buck to come to the realisation that he just wants to be where eddie is. not out of abandonment or some desire to fix things. but the simple fact of being in eddies life wherever that is
#ppl are like buck should learn to wait!!! perhaps. but perhaps.. it's like that one quote#'If your lover lives in Hong Kong and cannot get to Chicago. it will be necessary for you to go to Hong Kong'#that's his partnerrrrr and his partner needs to be in el paso... therefore it is necessary for buck to be in el paso...#murk posts#911

I'm not including steroline because in my mind they are endgame same with jax/tara and merder because whenever meredith dies she'll be with derek!! I didn't include barchie or bhva because all were endgame imo and didn't include klamille or klayley or haylijah because I ship all three and didn't want competing ships lol and spuffy was endgame in the comic books lol in my mind karamel is endgame because she can go where he is anytime but I included them anyway lol and handon is endgame in my mind as well because they would've been!! I included brylan because even though I consider them endgame because they were supposed to be and now luke/shannen are gone I consider them to be but I needed to fill a space lol
