You can see how the system was slowly dismantled (and replaced by gas guzzling buses) at http://www.phillytrolley.org/. I mourn the loss of the Philly trolley system.

They are also great traffic calming devices and they are modular so they can be repaired without having to redo large areas. There are certainly lots of advantages.
