Tram/Streetcar in Porto

Short recording of an old tram/streetcar starting at Café Piolho in Porto. Ambient noise of people and traffic (especially from one bus that is waiting on the traffic light). At 0:15 the tram starts moving and drives away. Squeaking and rattling of the old wheels on the rails and the wooden and metal contruction shaking from the engine. A little disturbance by wind in the end.
Recorded with Roland Edirol R-09 digital recorder and Edirol CS-15 cardioid-type stereo microphone.
