A young boy, enjoying the “fire pole” in the middle of the car, and his mom wait for a brand new “The Hop” streetcar to depart Burns Commons stop at the Lower East Side of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on November 11, 2018. The interiors of these 67-foot articulated streetcars built by Brookville Equipment Corporation are set up to carry 150 people, mostly standing, on this 2.1-mile M-Line operating from Milwaukee Intermodal Station to Burns Commons. Note the curved joint in the floor where movement in the articulation between car sections takes place. The line began operation on November 2, 2018, using five of these “Liberty” streetcars.
