Asahi Shimbun, 1/1/18:
2 streetcars that survived A-bomb are still running in Hiroshima
Haruno Horimoto was 15 years old when she hopped on the first streetcar after a suspension in operations in Hiroshima. She noticed the relative silence of the passengers, and the surprise that service was running.
Remarkably, tram operations were available just three days after an atomic bomb reduced the city to rubble on Aug. 6, 1945.
