Forgive me if this has already been said, but how about the movie "The Rock" where a cable car blows up? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZj_S_JtoGk
The movie "Metro" with Eddie Murphy has a scene where a guy is shooting at Eddie while riding a cable car about 53 minutes into the movie...Trolley goes out of control, people are flying off, it hits cars, etc. Julie Bradford Assistant Head of Audio Visual Services 1919 West 81st AVE Merrillville, IN 46410 The best thing ever said by a four-year-old patron to my boss....

Milo takes a streetcar home to his SF flat before the film goes animated. Also opening of *The Doris Day Show.* Maybe *The Conversation* has sequences showing streetcars passing Union Square (not sure)? *Star Trek IV: the Voyage Home* bus sequence. Are you sticking to the U.S., Nell? Because there?s a great short film set on a streetcar in Germany, * BLACK RIDER (SCHWARZFAHRER)* (available from Film Movement on the disc with INCH'ALLAH DIMANCHE).
