Yesterday, a trolley from the Rockhill Trolley Museum visited Williams Grove (near Mechanicsburg, PA). Its visit will last 9 days. It ran on the tracks that the Williams Grove Historical Steam Engine Association’s PRR 0-6-0 famously runs on, and it used a generator car generously loaned by the Middletown and Hummelstown Railroad. The M&H owner (Wendell Dillinger) was very into trolleys himself.
This marked the first time since 1938 that an electric trolley operated in Cumberland County. Perhaps this is a view of things to come. [I will make no further comment on the subject]
My wife was my "wheelman" for a few pacing shots. This was the last frame, and I think it is the best. A Ford Model T behind us wasn't happy with our slow pace and kept using its horn. I have to wonder how many times that Ford has been the slow car and upset other drivers.
This particular trolley was built in Porto, Portugal, in 1929 and is basically a copy of a Brill trolley built in the USA. The design is often called a "Toonerville Trolley." The crews in Portugal had been working on the American trolleys so much that they thought they could make their own - so they did.
I find it interesting that the trolley has three separate braking systems: air brakes, hand brakes, and dynamic brakes.
