Clang Clang Clang Went The Charlotte Trolley

In this episode, we discuss the history of streetcars in Charlotte from their beginnings in 1887 to 1938.  We cover topics such as the trolley strike of 1919 (the most violent event in Charlotte History), the trolley waiting stations in Myers Park, and the trolley walk in Elizabeth.  We end with the rebirth of the trolley from 1996 to 2010.
