If you ever pass a parked trolley and hear a blast of saxophone music coming from inside, you know who the driver is.
Everett Moore, ``Chazz'' as his friends call him, can do more than drive a trolley. He can provide curbside entertainment, too. He's TRT's most requested driver for special trolley rentals.
That's because of his habit of carrying his alto saxophone along on his party gigs.
While waiting for his party-goers at their various destinations, he pulls out his sax and passes the time playing as he strolls up and down the trolley aisle.
