text: Ebola virus circulating in Guinea is new strain Share This: AFP 4/17/2014 7:22:29 PM The virus that has caused a deadly Ebola epidemic in Guinea is a new strain that emerged locally, possibly transmitted by fruit bats, virologists have said.The outbreak is the first to be recorded in west Africa, but researchers said the virus causing it did not come from other countries where Ebola already circulates.An international team of scientists unravelled the genome of the virus and found it to be distinct from strains in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Gabon, though they share an ancestor.The virus is of the EBOV type -- one of three species that have caused outbreaks in sub-Saharan Africa, said the study published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Wednesday."This study demonstrates the emergence of EBOV in Guinea," the authors wrote.Data from the genetic analysis "suggest a single introduction of the virus into the human population," probably in early December 2013 "or even before", according to the study."It is suspected that the virus was transmitted for months before the outbreak became apparent," it added."This length of exposure appears to have allowed many transmission chains and thus increased the number of cases of Ebola virus disease."Though it has not been confirmed, the study said fruit bats found throughout west Africa were "potential reservoirs" of the virus."It is possible that EBOV has circulated undetected in this region for some time," said the authors."The emergence of the virus in Guinea highlights the risk of EBOV outbreaks in the whole West African subregion."Guinea has seen 197 cases of laboratory-confirmed or suspect Ebola since the beginning of the year.The World Health Organization raised the death toll on Thursday to 122 since the start of the year, from a previous figure of 108. Liberia continues to report 13 deaths.The fatality rate was between 71 and 86 percent in the cases they studied, the researchers wrote.There is no vaccine or cure for Ebola.People can contract the disease from handling the blood or other bodily fluids of sick or dead forest animals.The virus can then easily spread among humans through contact with infected blood, body fluids and tissue.An epidemic can only be stopped by isolating suspected cases in ultra-clean conditions and quarantining those who had been in contact with them.Symptoms include muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhoea and, in extreme cases, organ failure and unstoppable bleeding.Past Ebola outbreaks in Africa have happened in DR Congo, Sudan, Gabon, Republic of Congo and Uganda.

Server Makes a Mistake - In Your Favor
- ElsieDee Mar 2, 2007 10:42 PM
Please help settle a debate/argument.
You and several other folks go out for dinner at a local, family-run place. You order cocktails, a bottle of wine, apps., mains, and a couple of desserts. Food is mediocre (in fact, you don't bother having any of the left-overs boxed to take home - and you ALWAYS take home left-overs). Service is pretty bad (in terms of botched orders, kitchen not producing all of the mains at the same time, server disappearing for long periods of time, water glasses never refilled) but it's not the worse you've had. Still, by the end of the meal you know that you'll not be returning.
And then you get the bill. What's this? It's suspiciously ... lower than expected. You start to scrutinize it and discover that your server has either decided to (unannounced) comp. you the cocktails AND bottle of wine or (more likely, especially given that the wine was listed at about the same price as the four mains combined) forgotten to include them on the tab.
Some at the table argue in favor of letting the server know about their oversight and asking for an adjusted bill. Others argue in favor of paying, leaving a decent 25% - 30% tip as a "thank you for the oops," and hightailing it out the door.
What do you do?
I would definitely tell the server....unless the server says that he/she comped you, it's unlikely (especially based on the description you gave) that he/she did. In which case, you are basically stealing from the restaurant. Technically not your fault, but the blame might get placed on the server or whoever made the mistake. If it was less than a 10 dollar difference, maybe it wouldn't be as big a deal. But any more than that is definitely not okay.
Comparable situation: You go to clothing store and see a great outfit and see that the pricetag, which is stuck to the shelf, says 200 dollars. When you go to buy it, the checkout person (who seems inexperienced) only charges you 100. Would you just pay 100 and run out of the store, even though you *know* it should be 200? Hopefully not.
Dave MP
Likewise, if you go someplace and they give you too much change when you pay. Do you keep it or fess up. Hands down I give it back. It's kind of a karma thing to me. The amount of money gained by the error is not going to change my life so why keep it and potentially cause that server or store clerk problems when they come up short at the end of the shift.
If they charged you for an extra bottle of wine, would you tell them, or just pay it?
The honest thing to do is to tell the server and pay the correct bill.
This will probably get me in trouble but I would tell about the missing items on the bill (becuase if they are not being comped you are taking money out of the resturants pocket that they didn't know about) but I would tip her on the amount she orginally presented. Since the service was generally bad anyway and she made the error on the bill, I think that is what I would do. I am sure that many would think that meanspirited and I had a similar experience many years ago with a handwritten bill. I left a cash tip on the table based on the total and when I got to the register I found they asked for more than the presented total becuse our server did not add the bill correctly. I did not go back and add to her tip either.
Tell them. Especially since it's family - owned.
Tip based upon your experience, for better or worse, not on what they let you "steal".
The only time I'd consider keeping silent would be if it had been so outrageously bad that I was considering demanding to be comped on something. This does not appear to have been your situation. This happened once to me, and I let it go.
Seems to me to be a simple basic moral values/ethics question. While I wouldn't say that the same thought would NOT cross my mind, I would have to be REALLY angry about the meal to not say anything. The error is symptomatic of the rest of the service, and you likely deserve some level of 'compensation' for the poor treatment, but I couldn't get comfortable with stiffing the place. I think I would speak with the owner or manager and describe the entire situation, making a point of how you could easily have stiffed them. Any business owner worth a lick would be very appreciative of the feedback.
If nothing else, the way they dealt with this, once aware of it, would tell you whether this place deserves any further considertion at all.
I'm not understanding why the quality of the food and service makes a difference in what should be done, unless it's to point out that the diners will never go back anyway.
But I'm still not sure how that would justify not speaking up.
Have we forgotten - thou shalt not steal. And another oldie-but-goodie - treat others as you would like to be treated.
Thank you, all of you, for your responses. I was really shocked when two of my dining companions were so strongly insistent that nothing should be said - they seemed to feel that there was nothing wrong with just paying the total and leaving - they acted like kids trying to get away with something. It was disconcerting, to say the least.
Thankfully, the bill came to me and I was able to flag down the server (that was part of the issue - they left the bill and disappeared again, giving us plenty of time to discuss what to do) and get the total adjusted. Sad thing: when it was adjusted, the server managed to take off two of the entrees - at that point I decided that the new "total" was right and paid that amount (and left a 20% tip, 'cause I can't imagine tipping under that).
I felt like not saying anything was nothing more than stealing. It was upsetting that the "what to do" conversation carried over to the drive home - the only thing that I could see to do was to have the bill corrected, I was shocked that people that I otherwise thought as being morally and ethically upstanding would be so adamant about being quiet - it was like they felt entitled to the "freebies" because of the other disappointments with the meal.
And yes, it is (at least partially) a karma kinda thing for me - do right and the world'll be a better place.
re: ElsieDee
I would have done the same thing. Tried to fix it the first time. Left it alone the second time.
A customer told me that sodas were left off his bill last time he ate at my restaurant and as a friend of his paid for the meal and didn't mention it until they had left the restaurant it was too late for him to make good that day.
He offered to pay for them but I declined and thanked him for his honesty. It was something I took up with my servers at the next staff meeting and will continue to remind them to add everything they sell to guests immediately. It affects me as well as their tips.
You did the right thing, I think that's what my life is based on.
What's the question, the waiter makes a mistake and you ding the owner and tip the incompetence? Am I missing something.
You bring the waiter over, show the mistake, get the right bill and leave the tip based on the service provided, which in this case will probably be negligible.
Before I go to sleep I brush my teeth and lookin the mirror. That's when youknow you did the right thing.
That discussions like this even take place make me depressed and I fear for the future of the Republic. Restaurant bills are one of the few places in life that are black and white----it's numbers. You always pay for what you order. If you are overcharged, you have it corrected, If undercharnged, ditto. The issue of how much to tip is unrelated to the issue of being honorable and getting a correct bill.
This reminds me of my favourite dining moment. There were quite a few of us out for dinner together at a pretty shmancy restaurant. One of my cousins decided to pick up the tab - a very generous and unexpected gesture. It turns out that, in doing the addition on the credit card slip, my cousin made a substantial error in the restaurant's favour. The waiter noticed the mistake and pointed it out to him - at which point he left the total as it was, but added the difference to the waiter's tip. We were all very impressed.
I have no idea if this is what happened or what, but consider that the server may have intentionally left stuff off the bill in the hope that you would bridge the gap in your tip. It's a win-win for you and server, but a loss for the house. It happens...
re: financialdistrictresident
I'm not a big believer in Karma. I prefer morality. I hope the reason people do the right things are because that's what makes a civil society. I guess the thought that bad will come back on you is better than nothing.
Being so impressed that your date was honest, as you should be, almost expresses surprise. Too bad we've come to that.
reminds me of a time when I bought 2 coffees in a little bakery in London and gave them 10 pounds. They gave me change and I put it in my back pocket without checking. When I got home I realised they had given me change for 20 pounds.
The next day I went down to the bakery and told them they had given me too much change and gave them back the extra 10. They were thrilled to bits and gave me some bread which I didnt really want but ..
later that week I won 10 pounds on the lottery, and then the following week I won another 10. Karma huh?
As much as I would like to think that I would do the 'right thing', I'm not sure I would. In all honesty, tho, given this set of circumstances, I'm probably not in a good mood (poor service, underwhelming food), and I'm likely to think of this as bad karma for the server/restaurant. I'm not particularly proud of my answer, but I have to admit that the thought would cross my mind.
I alway tell the server. A few times in the last year, I've actually been presented with checks for other tables which I knew where cheaper than our bill would/should have been.
I definitely thought about paying the check for the wrong table, especially in one instance where the service and food was terrible, but I just couldn't do it and told the server and got the correct check. Karma, morals, whatver you want to call it, I just couldnt do it. Not to mention, I didn't want the server, no matter how bad they were, to potentially have to pay the difference due to the error (although I'm not sure if they would have to).

Police tracked a robbery suspect from Council Bluffs into Omaha Tuesday morning after that person allegedly held a pharmacy clerk at gunpoint.
Shortly before 5 a.m., a suspect walked into the Walgreens near 25th and Broadway, pointed a gun at a clerk and demanded prescription pain pills.
Police followed the suspect across Interstate 480 until they reached St Marys Avenue in Omaha, where officers called off the pursuit. Police have not yet released any suspect information.

Good bag.
Liam from Alabama– Verified Buyer
It's a little big on me. If you are shorter than 5'9" then I would look for a smaller bag. It sits kind of low on your back. Very comfortable.
Great Bag at a great Price

Find a pet to adopt
My name is Skid!
Facts about Skid
- Breed: Schipperke Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Skid's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, and up to date with shots.
Hello there! My name is SKID and I am a 1 year old Schipperke mix. I'm a sweet, wonderful boy looking to spend the rest of my life with a loving, responsible, forever family. Could it be you?
I am up to date on my vaccinations, neutered and wormed.
My adoption fee is 150.00. If you are interested in me, please call 859-490-0486 or e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Homeward Bound has adoption events in the Lexington, KY and Richmond, KY areas almost every weekend. Please feel free to visit us on FaceBook at Homeward Bound Canine Rescue and Rehabilitation for current adoption event news as well as updates on our available pets.
Thank you for stopping by!
Other Pets at Homeward Bound
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Skid, a Lexington, KY Schipperke dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Schipperke for sale in Lexington, KY, or seeking a Schipperke dog from a breeder in Lexington, KY.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Lexington, KY already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Lexington, KY breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Schipperke breeders who help with Schipperke rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Lexington, KY paves the way for another one to be saved.

My husband and I had our rehearsal dinner at the Molly Pitcher Inn. Not only was the food amazing, but the views were to die for. The room was beautiful and held our large group very comfortably. The staff was very professional and met every request. Our wedding was at the Oyster Point Hotel next door the next day. This made for a very easy walk back to our hotel rooms the night before the wedding. So easy for us and our guests!

Our wedding reception at the Molly Pitcher was absolutely perfect! Kelly was a trusted partner in the entire planning process, available to answer all our questions in a timely manner and her warm, friendly personality was a huge plus. The venue was great for our 110 guests - cocktail hour on the promenade was beautiful and the food was plentiful. Dinner was delicious, all our guests agreed. The bartenders were fun and the wait staff were so accommodating. Our maitre d' Fernando made my wedding vision a reality - every last detail, and there were a lot!
Clearly I can't say enough good things about the Molly Pitcher - best night of our lives!

My husband, families and I were 100% satisfied in the Molly Pitcher Inn for our wedding this summer. Kelly was beyond professional and helpful from the moment we chose the venue the previous summer. She was able to answer my many questions throughout the year and accommodate any needs and changes we had. Paul ran the event the day of and did a fabulous job. It was so wonderful as the bride to not have to be worried or think about the planning at all. Having our event at the Molly Pitcher Inn meant that I could relax and enjoy every moment of the evening. The food was outstanding and I would definitely recommend the risotto balls as a passed hors d'oeuvre, fabulous. Many of my guests stayed at the Molly Pitcher Inn for the weekend and had a wonderful time. I am beyond happy with my choice to get married there and hope to return to celebrate Anniversaries and events in the future.

Without a doubt we were 100% satisfied with our wedding at the Molly. Judy was more than helpful with every question we had. Paul ran the event seamlessly. The venue is beautiful, the food was magnificent, the staff was a small running machine. They accommodated our silly requests and helped us to have the comfortable yet elegant experience we wanted. Many, many reviews by our guests echoed our experience. Thank you....

They were both incredibly helpful, flexible and truly made our wedding perfect! All of our guest raved about the food and the hotel and how our wedding was the best they have been to in a long time. My husband and I had the best day of our lives and we couldn't have done it with out the incredible staff of the Molly Pitcher Inn. I definitely recommend the Molly to anyone who is looking for a place to hold their ceremony and/or reception!

One word: WONDERFUL!!!!!The Molly Pitcher is one of the most professional establishments I have ever been to. My parents were married there 20 years ago, I was proposed to there on my parents 20th surprise party, and I was married there. 20 years later, they are still as wonderful!! It was the ONLY vendor I went to with full intentions of looking around, but I stopped there. We met with Kelly, and were so pleased with her professionalism, knowledge, and overall support through the ENTIRE process. In a year of planning, I am sure I emailed her over 20-30 times, and ALWAYS received a response within 24 hours with the exact answer to the questions I needed. My wedding was stress free (if that is even possible!) and the staff handled EVERYTHING. My guests raved about the food, experience, professional staff, drinks, cleanliness, rooms, and service! The view is amazing, and my main reason for picking the Molly Pitcher is their flexibility on an outdoor wedding. They had a PERFECT backup plan for rain (beautiful set up indoors) so that myself or my guests did not have to worry. They offer valet service under the front overhang, so your guests do not have to worry about bad weather. We had our ceremony outdoors and wedding in the ballroom and it was FLAWLESS from the decor to the staff. Our Maitre'D Paul was one of a kind, from the rehearsal the night before, to the day of, he was attentive, professional and a PLEASURE to work with. Between Paul and Kelly, my stress levels were at a 0 (brides have enough else to worry about!). I had boxes of goodies, candy table setups, thank you bags, etc. that were given to Paul and were placed out for the guests exactly how i Imagined. They are so accommodating I cannot say enough incredible things about this place. What's even more great, is the AMAZING Sunday brunches they offer over half the year, it makes it really special for us to come back, visit, and relive the experience! GET MARRIED AT THE MOLLY!!!!!

My daughter dreamed of the perfect wedding since she was a little girl and her dream came true at the Molly Pitcher Inn. This was all made possible with the competent, courteous and accommodating staff. From the initial meeting with Judy we knew we were in good hands. The ballroom looked exquisite and the food was delicious from the cocktail hour to the Venetian hour. Please pass my compliments to the chef for an extraordinary dinner. The front desk was pleasant and extremely helpful. The wedding ran smoothly from beginning to end because of Paul. He is truly an asset to the staff. It's not easy dealing with a bride and a large diverse bridal party but he went above and beyond to make sure every one was having a good time. Anything we needed he was spot on in handling it. The room accommodations were clean and comfortable. We will definitely be returning and I know my daughter and son-in-law will be celebrating many anniversaries there for years to come. Thank you again for everything.

My wedding at the Molly Pitcher Inn was more than amazing! The staff, the food & everything in between were outstanding. Paul, The Maître'd was more than accommodating & treated me, my husband, my family & guests like they were his family. He made sure everything was perfect from the moment we met, until we left the Inn. Judy, the event coordinator was so professional & personable. She kept me level headed while all the planning was taking place. Also, Tony, the security guard has a heart of gold & was professional in doing his duties. My husband & I will continue to celebrate our anniversary there for years to come! we feel The Molly Pitcher Family is now our family!

My wedding at the Molly Pitcher Inn was everything I could have hoped for and more. From the start of the planning process my wedding coordinator was more then happy to help with any questions we had and accommodated all of our requests. The venue is beautiful, charming and was perfect for our day. The fact that it is an inn and has hotel rooms on site made things so much easier for all our guests. All of our guests had nothing but nice things to say about the entire day and venue. The food was delicious and they even helped accommodate a substitution to the menu that I wanted. They worked with my vendors such as my florist, band, DJ, photographer without any issues and the day went off without a hitch. My wedding coordinator even came up to the suite all the girls were getting ready in a couple times throughout the day to check on me/us to make sure we had everything we needed. Our matire'd was the best. He was professional and attended to any and all our needs the day of. I couldn't be happier with the Molly and how everything went.

Just had my wedding reception and I have to say that working with the team at The Molly Pitcher Inn was such a pleasure. Even though Allison originally showed us the Oyster Point she stayed with us throughout the whole process. She was always very responsive and the entire staff at the Molly Pitcher was so welcoming. Paul, our maitre'd, and his staff made sure we were taken care of as we were preparing the day of our wedding, making sure we had some breakfast while setting up the ballroom, bringing chairs for the make-up artists, and helping us figure out where to store everything since we did all the centerpieces and flowers ourselves. My parents were saying that they never once had to go to the bar themselves! We requested the top of the cake to be saved, but it so happened that they had to serve the whole cake to our guests. They contacted the bakery and told them what happened. They both worked it out where they will make another piece of the cake, similar to the top of our cake, so we can save it for our one year anniversary. Not only did they know what they were doing but they were also so fun to be around, and made us feel at ease the entire time. My guests did not stop raving about the food. We will definitely be back for an anniversary and hopefully for another wedding :)

What an absolutely perfect day/night we had for our wedding! The venue has the most beautiful view and outside space overlooking the Navesink River and marina. This is a top choice if you want an outdoor ceremony at the same location as your reception. There was a beautiful complimentary bridal suite with a water view where my girls and I got ready and my groom and I spent the night.
Judy helped answer all of our questions in the months leading up to the wedding (we live 3 hours away from the Molly Pitcher) and Paul was our maitre d' and did not miss a beat! The food is DELICIOUS and all of the servers were excellent as well. Every little detail was paid attention to and we had a completely stress and drama free day. Our guests cannot stop raving about our wedding; they say it was the wedding of the year!
Summary of Pros: The view is spectacular, especially in the summer. The food was top notch. It is a hotel, so many of our guests safely spent the night. They have different packages to accommodate many budgets. They offer discounted Friday and Sunday packages. The minimum guarantee is only 130 (some venues it's as high as 200!)
The only "Con" I can think of which wasn't even bad for us is that the venue is on the "smaller" side. The ballroom is maxed at 165 guests, so this is not the place to go if you want a huge wedding.

The Molly Pitcher is GREAT!!! :) We had our wedding here August 11, 2013 and worked with Judy during the planning. Christian was our maitre'd, and they were both wonderful! I can't say enough good things about both of them. Fantastic, helpful, took care of us so we could really enjoy the day... the list goes on and on... Judy helped us plan the menu and always responded to messages. She was excellent. Christian was there on the day of and he was awesome. He is funny, helped calm my nerves that day, and really took care of us. The maitre'd on the day of your wedding is so important; you need an excellent person to help guide you through the day. Christian is that person! I didn't truly realize how involved the maitre'd is until the day of and then I saw how helpful that role is. This role is basically your twin, doing all sorts of 'hosting' and setting up that you would do if you were available. You will be working with them closely the week of your wedding and so a personable and experienced person is what you need, and Christian is that person! Our guests still talk about how beautiful the setting was, plus the excellent food and wait staff were all great. The front desk staff too was pleasant and helpful. All of our guests told us how much they enjoyed staying here. We also hosted a breakfast for our guests the next day in the Navesink Room and that too was also great. Both the wedding and breakfast went so smoothly. We are both very pleased and happy we had our wedding here!! Still smiling!

The Molly Pitcher Inn made our dream reception a reality. The venue is breath-taking and kept in pristine condition. The patio was perfect for the cocktail hour and the ballroom was the perfect size for our 140 person wedding. The wait staff were courteous, enthusiastic and always there when you needed them. The cocktail room also serves as the bar area during the reception and I loved having that in a separate yet convenient location. We were able to place our photo booth in that room which was a nice surprise for guests. This is definitely an intimate venue and our guests loved the option of staying at the hotel. The rooms were gorgeous. Kelly in events was remarkable and made every detail perfect for us. There is a great park minutes down the road for pictures and the venue itself had tons of great spots for shots. Our guests raved about the lobster tail and filet mignon and the cocktail hour was like nothing I have ever seen/been to before! The price is so worth what you get and the tax/gratuity is included in the price. Our package was $187 a person for a summer night, Saturday wedding. This included rooms for us and both sets of parents, breakfast in bed, and more! Love, love, love the Molly!

Church members gather to remember MLK
Updated On: Apr 04 2014 11:40:00 PM EDT
Members of the Mount Zion church in Downtown Jacksonville turned out to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Friday night
King was shot and killed outside the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tenn. 46 years ago.
"It's important to know our history and pass that history down to our children, because as Dr. King used to say, 'You have to know where you came from to know where you're going,'" said Gene Logan.
Community groups gathered Friday at Mount Zion Church to sing, speak and show their support for what they are calling an "ongoing struggle" for equality.
Angie Nixon told Channel 4 that her two biggest struggles are the war on drugs and the school prison pipeline.
"Right now, one in three boys are expected to go to prison and that's something that we shouldn't tolerate as a community, as a whole," said Nixon.
Friday night's ceremony ended in a candle light vigil and the group had the spirit of King in their hearts, something they hope to pass on for the next generation of dreamers.
"It's time for us to start breaking down walls and building silos and building bridges and coming together for the greater good of the people and the community as a whole," said Nixon.

On Monday Night Raw, Batista was spotted shaking hands with someone in the audience. It was a boxer named Nonito Donaire, whose nickname is Filipino Flash. He was also spotted backstage earlier in the evening with Jimmy Wang Yang as well.
While most wrestling fans know him as Captain Lou Albano, very few know about the origin of the nickname. As a youth, he excelled in sports, where he rose to the ranks of captain of his high school football team. It was there when people started calling him Captain.
"There are so many Divas who have come and gone who have left their mark in WWE: Ivory, Jazz, Lita, etc. … Ric Flair says, "To be the man, you gotta beat the man," so if I had to choose one, it'd be the Diva who most people would consider the greatest Diva of all time, Trish Stratus. The only reason I'd choose her is because I know in my heart that I can put her down."
After spending a couple of years on the independent wrestling circuit, Mercedes Kaestner was finally able to secure herself a developmental contract with WWE, where she will be known as Sasha Banks. The belief is that she will start appearing on television soon since she already has ring experience.

Streetcars in New Orleans have been an integral part of the city's public transportation network since the first half of the 19th century. The longest of New Orleans' streetcar lines, the St. Charles Avenue Streetcar, is the oldest continuously operating street railway system in the world.[4] Today, the streetcars are operated by the New Orleans Regional Transit Authority (RTA).
There are currently four operating streetcar lines in New Orleans: The St. Charles Avenue Line, the Riverfront Line, the Canal Street Line, and the Loyola Avenue Line. The St. Charles Avenue Line is the only line that has operated continuously throughout New Orleans' streetcar history (though service was interrupted after Hurricane Katrina in August 2005 and resumed only in part in December 2006, as noted below). All other lines were replaced by bus service in the period from the late 1940s to the early 1960s; preservationists were unable to save the streetcars on Canal Street, but were able to convince the city government to protect the St. Charles Avenue Line by granting it historic landmark status. In the later 20th century, trends began to favor rail transit again. A short Riverfront Line started service in 1988, and service returned to Canal Street in 2004, 40 years after it had been shut down.
The wide destruction wrought on the city by Hurricane Katrina and subsequent floods from the levee breaches in August 2005 knocked all three lines out of operation and damaged many of the streetcars. Service on a portion of the Canal Street line was restored in December of that year, with the remainder of the line and the Riverfront line returning to service in early 2006. On December 23, 2007, the Regional Transit Authority (RTA) extended service from Napoleon Avenue to the end of historic St. Charles Avenue (the "Riverbend"). On June 22, 2008 service was restored to the end of the line at South Carrollton Avenue & South Claiborne Avenue.
|This section requires expansion. (June 2008)
In 1902, there was protest when the Louisiana legislature mandated that public transportation must enforce racial segregation. At first this was objected to by both white and black riders as an inconvenience, and by the streetcar companies on grounds of both added expense and the difficulties of determining the racial background of some New Orleanians.
In 1929, there was a widespread strike by transit workers demanding better pay which was widely supported by much of the public. Sandwiches on baguettes were given to the "poor boys" on strike, said to be the origin of the local name of "po' boy" sandwiches. The same year, the last of the 4 ft 8 1⁄2 in (1,435 mm) (standard gauge) tracks were converted to 5 ft 2 1⁄2 in (1,588 mm) (Pennsylvania trolley gauge) to match the rest of the streetcar lines.
After World War II, as with much of the United States, many streetcar lines were replaced with buses, either internal combustion (gasoline/diesel) or electric (trolley bus).
The area through which the St. Charles Avenue Line traveled fared comparatively well in Hurricane Katrina's devastating impact on New Orleans at the end of August 2005, with moderate flooding only of the two ends of the line at Claiborne Avenue and at Canal Street. However, wind damage and falling trees took out many sections of trolley wire along St. Charles Avenue, and vehicles parked on the neutral ground (traffic medians) over the inactive tracks degraded parts of the right-of-way. At the start of October 2005, as this part of town started being repopulated, bus service began running on the St. Charles line.
The section running from Canal Street to Lee Circle via Carondelet Street and St. Charles Street in the Central Business District was restored December 19, 2006 at 10:30am Central time. Service from Lee Circle to Napoleon Avenue in Uptown New Orleans was restored November 10, 2007 at 2:00 p.m. NORTA restored streetcar service on the remainder of St. Charles Ave. on December 23, 2007. Service along the remainder of the line on Carrollton Ave. to Claiborne Avenue resumed June 22, 2008.[5][6][7][8] The time was needed to repair the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina and to perform other maintenance and upgrades to the lines that had been scheduled before the hurricane. Leaving the line shut down and the electrical system unpowered allowed the upgrades to be performed more safely and easily.
Perhaps more serious was the effect on the system's rolling stock. The vintage green streetcars rode out the storm in the sealed barn in a portion of Old Carrollton that didn't flood, and were undamaged. However, the newer red cars (with the exception of one which was in Carrollton for repair work at the time) were in a different barn that unfortunately did flood, and all of them were rendered inoperable; early estimates were that each car would cost between $800,000 and $1,000,000 to restore. In December 2006, NORTA received a $46 million grant to help pay for the car restoration efforts. The first restored cars were to be placed in service early in 2009.[9]
Service on the Canal Street Line was restored in December 2005, with several historic St. Charles line green cars transferred to serve there while the flood-damaged red cars were being repaired. The eventual reopening of all lines was made a major priority for the city as it rebuilds.
Brookville Equipment Corporation located in Pennsylvania was awarded the contract to provide the components to rebuild 31 New Orleans' streetcars to help the city bring its transportation infrastructure closer to full capacity. The streetcars were submerged in over five feet of water while parked in their car barn, and all electrical components affected by the flooding had to be replaced.[10] Brookville Equipment's engineering and drafting departments immediately began work on this three-year project to return these New Orleans icons to service. Painting, body work, and final assembly of the restored streetcars was carried out by NORTA craftsmen at Carrollton Station Shops. As of March 2009, sufficient red cars had been repaired to take over all service on the Canal Street and Riverfront lines. As of June 2009, the last three Canal Street cars were scheduled for repair. The seven Riverfront cars were worked on next; they began to return to service in early 2010.

The Saint Charles Avenue Line starts uptown, at South Carrollton Avenue and South Claiborne Avenue.[12] It runs on South Carrollton Avenue through the Carrollton neighborhood towards the Mississippi River, then near the river levee turns on to Saint Charles Avenue. It proceeds past entrances to Audubon Park, Tulane University and Loyola University New Orleans, continues through Uptown New Orleans including the Garden District, and ends at Canal Street in the New Orleans Central Business District at the edge of the French Quarter, a distance of 13.2 miles (21.2 km).[2] Officially the St. Charles Avenue Line is designated as Route 12.
As of mid-July 2014, the portion of the Saint Charles Avenue line between Napoleon Avenue and Erato Street is closed for maintenance work part of the time, and when closed, is being covered by bus service between those points. Streetcars provide normal service between Erato Street and Canal Street, and between Naploeon Avenue and the terminal on S. Carrollton at S. Claiborne Avenue. The maintenance was scheduled to be completed, and the entire line reopened, on July 13, 2014, but that deadline has apparently been missed. However, the work appears to be in the last stages.[13][14]
Planning for the line began in 1831, and work began as the New Orleans and Carrollton Railroad in February 1833, the second railway in Greater New Orleans after the Pontchartrain Rail Road.[12] Passenger and freight services by steam locomotives began on September 26, 1835, originally without a dedicated right-of-way (it ran on public streets) although one was eventually established in the neutral ground (the median). Service began as a suburban railroad, since Carrollton was at that time a separate city, while areas along the route were still mostly undeveloped. Two locomotives New Orleans and Carrollton were supplied from England by B. Hick and Sons.[15][16]
As the area along the line became more urbanized, objections to the soot and noise produced by the locomotive increased, and transport was switched to cars that were powered by horses and mules.[12] For decades in the late 19th century, desire for a mode of transit more swift and powerful than horses but without the disruptive effects of locomotives resulted in a number of systems being tried out. Experimental systems included overhead cable propulsion (with a cable clamp patented by P.G.T. Beauregard in 1869 later being adapted for the San Francisco cable car system), and several innovative designs by Dr. Emile Lamm, including ammonia engines, a "Chlorine of Calcium Engine", and most successfully the Lamm Fireless Engine which not only propelled pairs of cars along the line in the 1880s but was adopted by the street railways of Paris.
While the city's first experiments with electric powered cars were made in 1884 (in conjunction with the World Cotton Centennial World's Fair), electric streetcars were not considered sufficiently developed for widespread use until the following decade, and the line was electrified February 1, 1893.[12] At the same time, it was extended from the corner of St. Charles and Carrollton Avenues out Carrollton to a new car barn at Willow Street.[17]
In 1900, the St. Charles and Tulane streetcar lines were extended on Carrollton Avenue and connected together, resulting in a two-way belt line. Cars signed St. Charles left Canal Street on Baronne Street to Howard Avenue to St. Charles Avenue, thence all the way to Carrollton and out that avenue, returning to the central business district on Tulane Avenue. Streetcars leaving Canal Street on Tulane Avenue were signed Tulane, operating out to Carrollton Avenue, then turning riverward to St. Charles Avenue, passing Lee Circle to Howard Avenue, and finally down Baronne (later Carondelet) to Canal Street.[17]
In 1922 the New Orleans & Carrollton Rail Road was merged into New Orleans Public Service Incorporated (NOPSI), which consolidated the city's various streetcar lines and electrical production.
In 1950, plans were made to fill in the New Basin Canal, which the Belt Lines crossed on a bridge on Carrollton Avenue. The right of way was to be used for an expressway, and Carrollton Avenue traffic was to use an underpass. Rather than rebuild tracks in the underpass, the Tulane and St. Charles lines were separated, and Tulane Avenue was converted to a trolley coach line. During construction, the St. Charles line continued to operate (in both directions) all the way on Carrollton Avenue from St. Charles Avenue to the underpass construction site at Dixon Street. Once the underpass was completed, the St. Charles streetcar line was cut back to Claiborne Avenue, as it operates at present, and the Tulane trolley coach line took over the part of Carrollton Avenue between Tulane Avenue and Claiborne.[17]
In 1972 automatic fareboxes were introduced, and the job of a separate conductor was eliminated from streetcars. The line still has one of the Ford, Bacon & Davis 1894 vintage cars in running condition. Although it is not used for passenger service, it stays busy with work operations such as track sanding. The rest of the line's cars date from 1923–24.[12]
In 2005, service along the route was suspended due to damage from Hurricane Katrina and the floods from the levee breaches. The small section from Canal Street to Lee Circle was the first part restored. The section continuing up to Napoleon Avenue was re-opened for service on November 11, 2007, and on December 23, 2007 was extended up to Carrollton Avenue, near the line's original terminus in 1833. The restoration of the line on the remaining section along Carrollton Avenue to Claiborne Avenue took place on June 22, 2008.
The Canal Street Line traces its origins to the old New Orleans City RR Co., founded to provide horse-drawn streetcar service throughout the city. This system's first lines opened in June 1861, running on Esplanade, Magazine, Prytania, and Canal Streets. The original car barn for the Canal Line, which served it until the end in 1964, was established at White Street. The line ran on its namesake street from St. Charles Street to the car barn; it was extended in August all the way to the end of the street at the Cemeteries.[17][18]
The City RR came under the control of the New Orleans Traction Co. in 1892 as the system was prepared for electrification. A large order for new electric streetcars was placed with the Brill Co. of Philadelphia. The Canal Line was the first New Orleans Traction line to be electrified, beginning electric service on July 28, 1894. It was followed very quickly by Esplanade and the rest of the company's horsecar lines. The line was extended slightly in the central business district to terminate at the foot of Canal Street, not far from the Mississippi River.[17]
In 1901, the streetcar company slightly extended the Canal and Esplanade Lines so that their outer ends met at City Park Ave., and connected them together in a Belt Line. Canal cars left the central business district on Canal Street, operated to City Park Ave., turned down that street to Esplanade Ave., and returned on Esplanade to Rampart and thus back to Canal Street. Cars marked Esplanade left the central business district via Rampart Street down to Esplanade, then operated out Esplanade to City Park Ave. to Canal, and returned on Canal Street. This Belt Line arrangement lasted until December 27, 1934, when Esplanade Ave. was converted to buses, and Canal resumed running only on Canal Street, end-to-end.[17]
From 1934 to 1950, there were two lines running on Canal Street. Cars marked West End operated from the foot of Canal to the outer end of the street at the cemeteries, then turned left onto City Park Ave. (Metairie Road) to the New Basin Canal, and then out the east bank of that canal to the West End amusement area at Lake Pontchartrain. Cars marked Cemeteries followed the same route, but turned back at the cemeteries immediately after turning off of Metairie Road. West End made only limited stops along Canal Street from Claiborne Ave. to City Park Ave. The West End line was converted to buses in 1950, after which the surviving Cemeteries cars were once again signed Canal. In 1951, the outer terminus of the Canal Line was moved to the end of Canal Street, and tracks on City Park Ave. (Metairie Road) were removed.[17]
In 1964, the streetcar company (known since 1922 as New Orleans Public Service Incorporated, or NOPSI) proposed to convert the Canal Line to buses. The line was to be combined with the West End and Canal Blvd. bus lines, so that patrons could have a one-seat ride all the way from the central business district to Lake Ponchartrain. There was tremendous controversy over the proposal, but it was carried, and the Canal Streetcar was discontinued, over the protests of preservationists. The last day was May 30, 1964, with the final run (NOPSI car 972, carrying banners which read "See Me On St. Charles") leaving Canal Line tracks at about 5:00 a.m. May 31. All the streetcars, except for 35 reserved for the St. Charles Line, were scrapped or donated to museums across the country, and all track and overhead wire was removed.[17]
By the 1990s, interest in streetcars was rekindled, not only in New Orleans, but in many cities around the country. Plans for the restoration of the Canal Line were announced in 2000, and tracks were rebuilt from the foot of Canal Street out to the cemeteries. There was even a branch line created on N. Carrollton Ave., which had never before had streetcar service. Finally, the Canal streetcar line reopened April 18, 2004, almost 40 years after its close.
The Canal Street Streetcar, in its reconception, now includes two lines,[18] totaling about 5 1⁄2 miles (8.9 km) in length.[2] The main line, named "Canal – Cemeteries" after the original "Cemeteries" line (and currently designated as Route 47), travels a direct route from the foot of Canal St. at the Mississippi River to its head 3 miles (4.8 km) inland. For much of its history, this area constituted the northern (lakeside) boundary of the city, which explains the density of cemeteries, Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish, in this area. The other, named "Canal – City Park/Museum" (or sometimes just "City Park", and designated as Route 48), begins at the French Market at the foot of Esplanade and Elysian Fields Avenues, sharing trackage with the Riverfront Line before turning onto Canal Street for most of its length. It diverges from the main trackage at Carrollton Avenue, where it turns on to N. Carrollton Avenue, ending at Beauregard Circle, at Esplanade Avenue and Bayou St. John, near the entrance of the New Orleans Museum of Art and within easy walking distance of the New Orleans Fairgrounds, site of the yearly Jazz and Heritage Festival. The Canal Cemeteries and City Park branches were originally designated as Routes 42 and 45, respectively, until January 2009, when the route numbers were changed to 47 and 48.
The Riverfront Line was built along a section of the city's Mississippi River banks, in an area with many amenities catering to tourists. It opened August 14, 1988, the first new streetcar route to be unveiled in New Orleans in 62 years. The line runs 2 miles (3.2 km)[19] from Thalia Street at the upper end of the New Orleans Convention Center to the downriver (far) end of the French Quarter at the foot of Esplanade Avenue. Unlike the other three lines, it travels on an exclusive right of way, along the river levee beside New Orleans Belt Railway tracks. Officially, the Riverfront Line is designated Route 2.
Two retired Perley Thomas streetcars, formerly running along the Canal line until the 1960s, were repurchased and refurbished, along with two W2-type streetcars originally from Melbourne, Australia. It was the city's first streetcar line to offer handicapped access, using the Melbourne cars; the historic landmark status of the Saint Charles route prevented the modification of the cars on that line.
The original line was single-track, 4 ft 8 1⁄2 in (1,435 mm) (standard gauge), with one passing siding. But the line proved to be so popular that this was inadequate, so in 1990, it was temporarily closed and a second track was added. At the same time, another repurchased Perley Thomas streetcar and another ex-Melbourne streetcar were added to the fleet.
By 1997, RTA felt the need for additional wheelchair access on the Riverfront line. It was decided to build new streetcars, which would be replicas of the venerable Perley Thomas cars, but would have more modern trucks and controls. The first such car used the body shell of another repurchased Perley Thomas streetcar, with a wheelchair access door cut into its side. Six additional replica car bodies were built from scratch in the venerable Carrollton Shops. After some experimentation with second hand PCC trucks and controls salvaged from retired Philadelphia streetcars, all seven new cars were equipped with trucks and controls from the Czech builder ČKD Tatra.
At the same time, it was decided to regauge the Riverfront line to broad gauge (5 ft 2 1⁄2 in (1,588 mm)) to conform to the St. Charles track gauge, and to build a connecting track on Canal Street from St. Charles to Riverfront. This would make it much easier to service Riverfront cars at Carrollton Station, and they could even be housed at Carrollton rather than out in the open at the ends of the Riverfront line.
The last day of standard gauge operation of Riverfront was September 6, 1997, after which the line was again temporarily closed and the track gauge changed. The three Perley Thomas cars and the three ex-Melbourne cars were retired at this time. The ex-Melbourne cars were sold to the Memphis Area Transit Authority, for use on that city's Main Street Trolley line. One of the Perley Thomas cars was sent to the San Francisco Municipal Railway, and the other two were stored at Carrollton Station. The Riverfront line reopened with the new cars running on the wide gauge track in December 1997.
Due to complaints regarding infrequency of service on the Riverfront line, NORTA has now installed LCD screens at each of the stops along the route to show approximate incoming times in each direction, as well as an animated display showing destinations and stops in both directions along the line. These times have often proven inaccurate due to fluctuations in the time required to traverse the track length.
On 28 January 2013 the Loyola Avenue Line opened, running for 0.8 mi (1.3 km) on Loyola Avenue in the New Orleans Central Business District from New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal (UPT) to Canal Street. The total length of the Loyola Avenue Line is 1.6 mi (2.6 km).[2] Construction started in August 2011, and the line was opened in time for New Orleans' hosting of Super Bowl XLVII.[20][21] The line is designated Route 49.
The route continues in on Canal Street to Harrah's at the river, and on weekends, it continues further down the Riverfront tracks to the French Market terminal at Esplanade Avenue. The line operates the same type of Von Dullen cars as the Canal Street line. It features solar powered passenger shelters along Loyola Avenue.[22][23][24]
The French Quarter Rail Expansion was scheduled to begin construction in Spring 2012 with revenue service planned for Fall 2013, but plans had to be postponed. The route is currently planned to be 1.5 mi (2.4 km) long and have 6 sheltered stops. It is to extend from Canal Street down N. Rampart and St. Claude Avenue to Elysian Fields Avenue. Track will be laid in the street next to the neutral ground, like the track for the Loyola Line. Construction is expected to begin in the fall of 2014, with service in 2016. Original plans called for the line to extend to Press Street, and to have a branch extending from St. Claude via Elysian Fields Avenue to connect with the Riverfront line at the foot of Elysian Fields and Esplanade Avenues, but those extensions have not been funded. A future extension is projected down St. Claude Avenue past Press Street to Poland Avenue, next to the Industrial Canal. This would require crossing the Norfolk Southern Railroad at Press Street, which the railroad opposes on safety grounds.[25][26][27][28] [29]
The St. Charles Avenue Line has traditionally used streetcars of the type that were common all over the United States in the early parts of the 20th century. Most of the streetcars running on this line are Perley Thomas cars dating from the 1920s. The one exception is an 1890s vintage streetcar that is still in running condition; it is used for maintenance and special purposes. Unlike most North American cities with streetcar systems, New Orleans never adopted PCC cars in the 1930s or 1940s, and never traded in older streetcars for modern light rail vehicles in the later 20th century. New Orleanians also continue to prefer use of the term streetcar, rather than trolley, tram, or light rail.
In the Carrollton neighborhood, the RTA has a streetcar barn, called Carrollton Station, where the streetcars of the city's lines are stored and maintained. The block wide complex consists of two buildings: an older carbarn at Dante and Jeannette Streets and a newer barn at Willow and Dublin Streets. The shop there has become adept at duplicating any part needed for the vintage cars.
With the addition of the new Riverfront and Canal lines, more vehicles were needed for the system. The RTA's shops built two groups of modern cars as near duplicates of the older cars in appearance. One group of seven cars was built for the Riverfront line in 1997, and another group for the restored Canal Street line in 1999 (one car) and 2002-2003 (23 cars). These new cars can be distinguished from the older vehicles by their bright red color; unlike the older cars, they are ADA-compliant, and the Canal Street cars are air conditioned.
Before Hurricane Katrina, the historic cars ran exclusively on the St. Charles Avenue Line, and the newer cars on the other two lines. However, in the wake of hurricane damage to the St. Charles line tracks and overhead wires, and to almost all of the new red cars, the older cars were run on Canal Street and Riverfront until the new cars could be repaired. Using whatever worked wherever it could be run continued for several years. By 2010 enough restored streetcars were back in service to again confine the historic Pearly Thomas cars to the St. Charles line.
