In 2007 (and at least until 2012 when I last checked) the tram operated regularly: daily from Memorial Day weekend (last weekend in May) to Labor Day weekend (first weekend in September) from 12:00 to 19:00. There were additional dates in late spring and early fall with varying hours of operation.

Operation was also timed with, and the tram was always out whenever cruise ships docked at the seaport. Hence my photos from 28.09.2007 (mid-September):

But apart from that, you can hardly see the difference between pictures from 2007 or 2022.
