    Those houses are still there. They might have rebuilt those tracks, in between. Notice that there wasn't car traffic and the headlight of the streetcar was covered with that slitted cap, to avoid enemy aircraft targetting:

    It's all about booking 80 guests onto that train, during X-Mas Eve. Guests are to be served food and drink, while riding a round trip

    Wasn't 1974 the last year for German Beetle production?

    Yes, and also the end of cabrio production in the U.S., IIRC. U.S. Beetle production ended in '78 or '79.

    You mean the Rabbit. The beetle was never produced in the U.S.. But, further in Mexico and Brazil

    I'll have to check that, but in reflection, I do think you're correct.
