If you ever get the chance to watch the Laurel & Hardy 1930 short-subject "Hog Wild" there are some great street scenes in the last few minutes, with Los Angeles Railway streetcars and a great double-decker bus. The end is wonderful, when they get pinched between two LARy "Huntingtons":

Some good laughs too, which are in short supply these days.Tim
