<p>Little Rock, Arkansas has a short street car system that is pretty neat. I don't know whether one can define it as a success (depends on the criteria), but LR has been expanding it. Eventually, as I was told when I rode it, the operator plans to extend it to the LR Airport.</p> <p>The cars are heritage in appearance but otherwise very modern. I believe they were built in Iowa or thereabouts in the early 2000s. They are air conditioned, and they appeared to be very smooth. </p> <p>I rode the system in 2007 or 2008. At the time it was approximately 2.5 miles in length. I understand that it has been expanded to the President Clinton Library, which adds another mile or so to the system. </p> <p>The primary purpose of my trip to LR was to visit the Clinton Library. It is a very nice library and worth a visit irrespective of one's political views or views of President Clinton.</p> <p> </p>
