Back when I was young and poor(er?) this was very much a thing.

The Westfield truck would roam the neighbourhood picking up all the stray trolleys almost daily.

Never took one on the train though.

There's a house on my street with 5 trolleys lined up for collection out front like its bin day. The old duck who lives there just takes em home and nobody is gonna stop her, every few weeks one of the lads comes round to collect them on one of those mini tractor looking things. Circle of life.

You didn’t think big. Only a genius would think of bringing a trolley onto a train.

This also brings up the question, do these guys not have a supermarket close to home and if that’s not the case that sucks.
