Trolley Wrap Season is upon us!
« on: May 17, 2019, 10:20:38 AM »
SDMTS just tweeted that they’re getting the trolleys ready for wraps. And that there’s.... 50!!! 50??  I didn’t even know they had that many trolleys.

Here’s the tweet: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

Any predictions? And SD locals, keep your eyes out! I look forward to sightings soon.

Maybe they're counting each trolley car individually? Because yeah, 50 is a LOT of trolleys.

That'd make a lot more sense! I'm going to tweet and ask for clarification because like WOW

If this happens anytime soon then things are definitely happening earlier this year.  Normally wraps don't happen until a week or two before comic-con.  I think they sell that advertising space a month at a time so that's why it works out that way.

50 is the magic number this year.

I'm not sure what the process is but yeah it does FEEL early.  Someone tweeted at them saying there were a lot of naked trolleys and they responded with that.  So my assumption is that they'll go from naked to SDCC wraps now.  But I suppose it'll be up to the locals to confirm lol.

I call the trolley the "Comic-Con Train" year round, but once the wraps start it does get more exciting. They usually start poppin up here and there a month early sometimes

Just peeked at their twitter feed:

San Diego MTS  @sdmts
"We have 130+ light rail cars, so we'll have 50 of those individually wrapped cars for Comic-Con."

Right on!

Haha came to post that. It’s a response to me tweeting: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

Looks like it’s individual cars then, not 50 full trains.  That makes much more sense.

I'm hearing locals are seeing different trolley wraps now.  Any locals spot anything new today?  Would love to see pics!
