Ivory Coco
Ivory Coco, a retired streetcar motorman, operated streetcars from 1971-2004. We tour one of the St. Charles Streetcars as Ivory explains the working of this beloved New Orleans relic. He shares his scariest moment as a streetcar motorman and compares the green Perly Thomas streetcars with the newer "Red Ladies". We also talk to New Orleans Regional Transit Authority representative, Rosalind Cook. She tells us which streetcar lines are in service and when we can expect to see the streetcars gracing St. Charles Avenue once again.
