Recordist's notes
the tram was an rather old, small car. operated manually with a lever, rolling noisily across the city. conversations of passengers, announcements from the speakers (on all public transport in Japan announcements are made by the driver with a headset, along with the prerecorded massages), creaking and swishes of the car, street noise.
