alt Hacker NewsGreat work! As a side track, it led me to dive into the history of the manufacturing company of Breda trains. Originally founded in Milan late 1800s by Ernesto Breda for locomotives, expanded in the war products during the wars, and went through nationalization, fusion to become AnsaldoBreda and later bough by Japanese to become Hitachi Rail Italy.
Later to get banned from bidding on the contract for the replacement vehicles because the trains were so mediocre (although somehow still better than the earlier Boeings) and the company so brazenly corrupt.
Meanwhile SF runs 1800s–early 1900s era Milan trams on their heritage line. Not built by Breda, because of course.
