Trolleyology: Johnstown

Join PTM staff, volunteers, and members for our new Zoom series, Trolleyology! These programs feature Pennsylvania transit history topics and tales of our collection that you can experience from home. Registration is required but free of charge. Donations are welcome and encouraged. Limited space is available!

Were it not for the sharp climb of the Pittsburgh Railways Company’s Fineview line, the Johnstown Traction Company's Morrellville line's steep grade at its outer end would certainly have been more well-known.  As it is, the system is fondly remembered as the "last of the small-town trolleys" and will be the subject of this October Trolleyology presentation.

A Question & Answer session will follow the program.

For the best experience, we recommend downloading Zoom in advance.
