Being born in Calcutta we are still nostalgic about trams. From our childhood days we have been using trams very comfortably for dropping us to our destinations. Whenever our driver was absent my sister preferred tram sevice to go to school. She studied at Calcutta Girls High School which was very near to Dr.Bidhan Chandra Roy's house. Dr.Roy was then the Chief Minister of Bengal.We brothers too liked this service whenever we faced a similar situation. Hence whenever we read about the non existence of tram in Kolkata we miss a heartbeat. However ñow we are happy to learn 'Trams being brought back in many cities.'
