New Orleans transit water damage
The polluted water that is still filling parts of New Orleans is apparently doing bad things to some of their bus and trolley fleet. I can imagine once they get the vehicles out from the "water" that it will probably take them a while to drive them out, assess the damage, figure out what works and what doesn't, and then actually fix the vehicles. (thanks Matt)
Interestingly, this article talks about how some of the buses were "commandeered" by people to evacuate or just to live and survive in. No mention of the odd idea that someone would decide to take a city bus out for a joy ride in the middle of a natural disaster, as brought up in the New York Times article that Randolph mentioned the other day. (Maybe a reporter misreading the situation? Or the people involved in it?)

Thanks, this is the only thing I have read about the condition of the trolleys.
