I like to watch the other passengers on the trolley. Most of the time it is merely an interesting study of human behaviour for me. I like to make up playful little anecdotes about the other riders as I coast to my destination.

Not two stops later, the driver was chasing some other pre-pubescent boy around the underground station, trying to apprehend him for some offence I didn't witness (though it would have to be pretty serious to make a trolley driver chase you about the station). The child was able to escape when the driver tripped and fell, much to my disappointment as a distant witness. These are people who do not need my imagination to create anecdotes. Their characterisation has already been cast.
