Join PTM staff, volunteers, and members for our Zoom series, Trolleyology! These programs feature Pennsylvania transit history topics and tales of our collection that you can experience from home. Registration is required but free of charge. Donations are welcome and encouraged.
They started life in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis-St. Paul and are now one of the last fleets of PCC cars still in revenue service, having traveled far and wide. With lots of photos, Minnesota Streetcar Museum historian Aaron Isaacs will tell you their story, which started with a PCC that was supposed to go to Pittsburgh.
Aaron Isaacs grew up with the Minnesota Streetcar Museum, which his father help found in 1962. He has volunteered for 48 years, and is now the Board chair and historian. He edits the museum’s quarterly Twin City Lines history magazine and has written seven books on Minnesota’s streetcars and railroads. He is also the long-time magazine editor for the HeritageRail Alliance.
This program will be recorded and available at a later date on the PTM YouTube channel.
Trolleyology presentations will continue on a regular or semi-regular basis. Interested in presenting? Email Kristen at kfred@patrolley.org! We’re specifically looking for programs related to the Trolley Era in general, Pennsylvania transit history, or stories about our collection.
