(A somewhat better) Trolley picture of the day

VTA996+dish

I posted yesterday’s trolley picture of the day when I was sitting in the departure lounge at lovely San Jose International Airport (10 years since the last time I was there and they’re still working on the same roadways into the airport? And there’s still no direct trolley link to the thing, even though it’s a whopping 3/4s mile away from the 1st St mainline? Oy) and thus didn’t have time to carefully look at all of the pictures. Because it I had, I would have noticed that I managed to get one that had both the NASA/Lockheed/whoever dish on the southwest side of Moffett and one of the new (and dumpy looking; the old high-floor VTA cars looked like a low-budget knockoff of the Bombardier/BN first gen cars in Portland, but the almost all white paint scheme the VTA uses does not work well on low floor cars with really high ceilings) VTA trolleys at the same time.

Well, now I’ve fixed that little oversight (at least as much as I can with the little point-and-shoot Nikon I was carrying because I didn’t want to lug my Pentax from airport checkpoint to airport checkpoint.)
