[WATCH] Vintage Footage Shows the Old Queensboro Bridge Trolly in Operation

Here are the last four trolley lines to operate in New York City: #35 The Church Avenue Line, #68 The Coney Avenue Line, #50 The MacDonald Avenue Line, all in Brooklyn shown operating with the famous PCC (President’s Conference Car). The last line is the Queensborough Bridge Railway, covered in fascinating detail from Queens Plaza on Long Island to the underground terminal in New York City. The film features some of the last trips in 1956 and transportation of car 1001 to the Shore Line Trolley Museum in Connecticut.
