there is no trolley. they were all killed off by the automobile industrial complex. the tracks are now unruley and wild, the people once tied to them killed in crosswalks by giant trucks and SUVs. but sometimes you come pull the lever to reminisce on simpler times. 3 *

Left or Right?

oo0 There is nothing you can do to save the people. However, the lever you stand next to controls the music playing from the boombox attached to the trolley If you pull it to your left, it plays All-Star by Smash Mouth.
