When I was a child my maternal grandmother took me on the trolley in Pittsburgh, PA. Loved those PCC cars!

I live a couple minutes away from the Seashore Trolley Museum and I find trolleys very interesting as I don’t see them get talked about. I don’t know too much about them but I still think they’re charming pieces of rail history.

There's something about that ding ding, so awesome! So historic

Excellent selection of USA trams. I must check the internet for a similar video of trams in this country. After years of ripping up track many British cities are relaying lines and extending old ones to ease the problem of getting about. Edinburgh relayed track down the centre of the city after years of neglect. Trams age getting to be THE thing for urban short trips.

Watching some of these units and they had to be one that must have come from Cincinnati back in the day. I have seen photos but it wonderful to see them in action. TY MIKE!

July me and my gal vacationed in San Francisco, in the early 1990s, we made sure to take both cables cars and the trolley cars available . In my home town, Cleveland, Ohio, ....there was, (and still is) a trolley service. The routes were only East and West, ....nothing went North & South For the longest time it was a charming, older styled car. When I was growing up there, 1953 to 1977, ....it traveled through some of the poorest neighborhoods, on the far West side. You saw views of the slums, and lots of dilapidated, housing and abandoned factory sites. I don't believe it went very fast, ....not much more than 45 mph. It wasn't air conditioned, ....the windows opened. It didn't run for 24 hours, either.

Thanks for this fabulous video.
At this moment I'm having a terrible bout with insomnia and just cannot get to sleep. So I logged on to YT and was directed to this terrific channel. Such great stuff!

Better than a Tesla, this is truly the electric car.

Philadelphia also has a great streetcar system that goes partially underground. They also have PCC trolleys on Gerard Ave.

Thanks for including the mattapan-ashmont line in Boston

My little one loves these videos! Thank you!

In both Cleveland, Ohio and Columbus, Ohio, they had their trolleys, operate on the streets, along side of the automobile traffic. Those street trolleys were phased out, at the end of the 1940s. Cleveland, retained its only trolley service, that rides on its own dedicated track, and crosses streets and roads, but is never rolling along side of road traffic.

I love the UTA S70s, they sound and look so cool

[MrBnsftrain]

9:05 the blue line cars look older than the other UTA cars.
11:37 i hear a steam locomotive's whistle in the background
13:36 the full ad red car looks out of place in the Twin Cities streetcar!
20:30 San Diego's 1980s built cars numbered in 1000s are diminishing and being replaced by 3000 and 4000 series cars.
Have you ever been to the Illinois Railway museum? they have a large collection of trolleys, streetcars, and interurban cars.
Kansas City recently opened their modern streetcar line, which I have video of on my channel!
Great Job! Can't wait to see more!

Britts see trolleys everyday at markets, though here in the US, we normally behold shopping carts as a normal sight.
