Funny, I'm looking at that streetcar basically right now!

The funicular in the Taksim tunnel is cooler imo

I think this is it but I don't seem to have any better photos:

I see you're UK. I was in London last year and loved the Tube - I'm currently all over the İstanbul metro with my Underground pin on my bag!

Ace! I'm North of London but go there every so often. The Istanbul public transport system is really good - but maybe I just liked the variety, with the metro, old and modern trams and riverboats!

The mix is super cool! Today we took funicular > tram > bus > ferry for one trip, all for 62 lira (I think about 2 £)
