Trolleyville, U.S.A. was an active, operating museum in Olmsted
Falls, Ohio, depicting the era of the streetcar and the interurban. From
small 4-wheel utility line cars to big freight motors, there is
something for every trolley fan in this video.
Out on the
line, we’ll take you aboard the cars so you can watch the motorman at
work. We’ll pace the cars along the main line, see repairs and
restoration work in progress, visit the powerhouse and watch from
trackside as the streetcars, wooden and steel interurbans, freight
motors and trolleys perform on the Trolleyville main line.
The
program closes with a series of beautiful night runbys past the former
B&O depot, in a starlight parade of transportation history. If you
love streetcars, you’ll want to have this video in your collection, for
it is indeed a “Trolley Treasure”.
