In Milan, the streetcars are a distinctive orange and grey. Most of them were built prior to World War One, and are still in service. San Franciscans will recognize them right away, as there are several Milanese streetcars on the F Line Market St/Embarcadero. SF has restored many old cars from around the world and put them into circulation, including those donated by Milan.
It was strangely comforting to see them chugging along in their "native habitat"...
