From the Back Cover

Trolley captures the magical history of street railways, from early horse cars to modern light rail. Meticulously researched over four years, this lyrical documentary presents a comprehensive collection of trolleys, seen on motion picture footage dating from the 1890s to the 1990s. Included are open cars and closed cars, horse cars and cable cars, urban streetcars and country trolley lines, elevated railways and underground subways.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating history of the trolly, December 17, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Trolley: The Cars That Built Our City [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Of all my videos "Trolly" is one of my favorites.
It tells the history of the trolly from its very beginnings
up to the present "Light Rail" system. It is very enjoyable
to watch.

I absolutely love this video! It is very well done and wonderfully blends the music with the film. If you love trolleys, you will love this. I missed out on riding these great vehicles, but watching "Trolley" sure makes me want to take a time machine back into this fascinating era! Well worth purchasing.
