Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Street Railway System of Philadelphia, Its History and Present Condition During the past few years the public mind has been awak cuing to a realization Of the social and economic importance of the local transportation systems of great cities. Public Opinion is beginning to demand that in the administration Of such transportation systems the interests of the entire community rather than the promotion Of private ends shall be regarded. Some of the European cities have assumed the direct management of their street railways, while American cities have attempted various plans Of regulation and control Of the corporations which conduct their service. These recent experiments to reduce the cost of service and improve its character have-attracted much attention. But while there has been extended general discussion, there have been few comprehensive studies of particular systems in this country, and the discussion has thus suffered from the lack of exact knowledge regarding local conditions in American cities.

Download or read book Philadelphia Trolleys written by Allen Meyers and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Streetcar service arrived in Philadelphia in the 1850s, shortly after the consolidation of the city. After the Civil War, the horse-drawn omnibus gave way to a comprehensive network of streetcar lines with some routes measuring nineteen miles in length. By 1915, the electrification of the streetcar increased the number of routes in Philadelphia to a total of eighty-six. During the trolley's heyday, the city provided a vast test track for such companies as J.G. Brill, Kimball and Gorton Car Manufacturers, and the Budd Wheel Company. The Wharton Railroad Switch Company revolutionized the manufacture of switches and tracks. Of the lines that once operated in Philadelphia, five are still running today. Philadelphia Trolleys contains a variety of rare images, including a postcard of the Point Breeze Amusement Park, photographs of motormen's uniform badges and buttons, architectural drawings, early stock certificates, and a photograph of the Toonerville Trolley used in the silent movies produced by Lubin Studios in the 1920s.
