Another objective is to convey the everyday experiences of the city and the cultural and social, for example, the traditional flea market and the feasts of St. Anthony, without forgetting to reference the cultural figures like the poet Fernando Pessoa, or even Queirosiana evocation of Lisbon.
The complete editorial content of the book will include a chapter with the history and technical
details about the actual tram 28 as well as data about creating the Carris tram network at the
beginning of last century and a history of the company itself . The finish also included a map of the
route, the list of stops and even a list of all addresses, contacts and operating hours of monuments
