In between the older PCC streetcars and the current Bombardier Flexity Outlook, there was the CLRV which served for about 40 years, much longer that originally intended. Prior to the PCC streetcars there was the Peter Witt model.

Sunrise in Milan—3 April 2017
I made the most of my brief visit to Milan six years ago. In this Lumix LX7 view, I pictured one of the city’s famous Peter Witt trams with the rising sun. I spent several hours exploring Milan by streetcar before taking the train to Genoa. Lumix LX7 set at ISO 80, f2.8 1/640 sec. RAW file adjusted in Lightroom. 3 April 2017.
