Best Answer

a street car named desire is a train they used to get around.

Literally, Blanche DuBois had to take A Streetcar Named Desire and another called Cemeteries to get to Elysian Fields (Stanley and Stella's apartment building). Symbolically, Blanche got to New Orleans through Desire (her descent into pedophilia and prostitution after her husband's suicide) and Cemeteries (the deaths of many people in her family that led to her family losing the mortgage on their estate).
