Pikes Peak Trolleys, Past, Present and Future

The Colorado Springs area was blessed by a streetcar system that was one of the best to be found anywhere. This had much to do with Winfield Scott Stratton who became owner of the Colorado
Springs Rapid Transit Railway Company, and did great things with it. The PowerPoint presentation will cover the history of streetcar service pre- and post-Stratton, how it affected the lives of residents, and
what became of it. We will also review what is going on presently in the trolley world and what we might imagine for the future.
