I recall riding the North Shore Line from downtown Milwaukee to downtown (the loop) Chicago perhaps a dozen times in the early 1950’s. Here’s a video. https://youtu.be/8xh1KN_XMZY

Milwaukee had “street cars” that looked like this. https://visions4netjournal.com/wp-co...17C38B4EC.jpeg

I’d catch it on Howell Ave. to downtown Milwaukee.

Was that the route 14 or 15?
I rode the last streetcar ride in 1958, I was 13 at the time. The route 10, downtown to Wauwatosa and West Allis.
