[edit] Information and Fee

Colored yellow and blue, but sometimes other colors due to advertisements, the tramcar is well known for the phrase "Watch the tramcar, please," a pre-recorded alert voiced by local Floss Stingel to clear the tramcar's path. The tramcar fare is $2.00. Operating hours are 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. Operating season is from Easter Weekend to mid-September.
