The Trolley (It's more fun in the Philippines)

Experiencing the TROLLEY.

Ive seen it in pictures and some movies but to actually experience it?
Well, life is short. And when you're young don't you just want to try it? Just to satisfy my curiousity.

See for yourself...


This is made of wood customized for a 6 seater passenger, plus one "manunulak" or the driver who pushes you around. People use this as a transportation from their home to go the nearest train station and vice versa. You just need to pay the "manunulak" 10php for the ride and let Physics take you to your destination.

You'd probably wonder what if there's a train passing by? isn't it dangerous? Well you don't have to worry cause they know the train schedule and if it's time for the train to pass by, all they need to do is to carry the trolley and put it aside. Same principle applies when they need to turn around or when there is another trolley on the other end. Cool right?


 It's amazing how Filipinos can be creative and innovative. They see an oppurtunity, they use it and walaah.. An instant mode of transportation and income generator.
