Trolleyology: Keeping up with the Joneses

Join PTM staff, volunteers, members, and friends of the Museum for our 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!

Most Pittsburgh transit fans are familiar with the Jones' Low Floor Car, that ubiquitous "yellow car" trolley which was the mainstay vehicle for Pittsburgh Railways Co. from the WWI era until the arrival of the PCC streamlined cars.  Few, however, know much about the man behind the machine - Mr. P.N. Jones.  This presentation from Jack Demnyan will focus on his life and career with the Railways while uncovering a few surprises along the way.

A Question & Answer session and discussion will follow the program.

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