Trolley |
I'm always in a qunadry on certain
heritage operations as to classify them as a museum, or as transit. This
is one of them. Since it operates in public streets, I classify it as a
heritage transit service. Most of the line is on the original right-of-way
of the original Ft Collins Streetcar system.
This line uses an original Fort Collins
single-trucked Birney car #21. There are talks of extending the line into
downtown Fort Collins. Personally I love this line! If I was to move to
Colorado, I would want to move to Fort Collins and live along the street
the trolley is on! |
