I've got another stupid question. I'm having a lot of trouble getting off these darn trolley cars once I get on them. I've tried moving in every direction, jumping, running, looking up / down, you name it, but I still get stuck. Any suggestions?

You have to look at the cart and then click on it, then look away and walk. It's just like the raft, you'll here a bell when you get on or off.

P.S.
Don't freak out if one leaves without you,( I did :) just throw the lever again and wait for it to come back.

Ammie - You're far from the first one who has difficulty figuring out how to get off the trolleys (or rafts, etc.) - on them for that matter too! ;)

There is a great post on having difficulty with the trolleys from a long time ago which gave lots of folks a big smile! We've all been there!

And one of the biggest tips on the trolley carts, one that I wish I had known earlier: create a portal right next to the two trolley cart lines. If you get stuck (and you can get stuck between gates, where you can't get out!), you can always teleport there.

As for the carts themselves, I click on 'em (to get on the cart, just like getting on the raft), then pull the handle and sit. The cart will move you where it wants you to go, and any moves you make can actually cause problems.
