New Orleans tourism officials are determined to go on with Mardi Gras but at least one familiar element will be missing: the city’s famous trolley cars.
More than two dozen of the cars were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina.
City transportation officials say they don’t know when the streetcars will be operating again.
The cost of repairing them is about $1 million per car.
The St. Charles streetcar line is the oldest continuously operating streetcar line in the world. It’s on the National Register of Historic Places.
