All NO streetcars in one article?

Would it make sense to create a single article covering all of the New Orleans streetcars (St. Charles, Canal St., Riverfront) in one article? --Jfruh 15:05, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Although I'm partial to the St. Charles line and think of the red streetcars as "upstarts," I think your idea for a general article does make sense—especially post-Katrina with the confusion of St. Charles streetcars operating on Canal Street. The St. Charles line is certainly important enough, historically, to merit its own article. On the other hand, it wouldn't make sense to have a separate article for each of the new lines. So maybe St. Charles Avenue Streetcar could forward to Streetcars in New Orleans#St. Charles Avenue Streetcar, which would be a major section of the new article. -- Muffuletta 16:03, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That seems reasonable. Another possibility would be to kkep the seperate St. Charles Avenue Streetcar article and have a "Streetcars in New Orleans" (or similar title) article which gives a brief mention and points to main article for the St. Charles line. -- Infrogmation 17:14, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
