    As a kid, in the 70s, I used to walk along the track beds that are out in the woods.
    Always wondered what the streetcars looked like in action. Canal and High streets looked vibrant and prosperous in the video.
    Thanks to whoever put these videos up.

    I wish Holyoke still had that trolley system. That would've been SO COOL & way better than average PVTA buses. *sigh*

    I'll never understand, why on earth burn them, not even try to salvage these machines for parts? Guess it shows how attitudes have changed. Say what you will about Holyoke today, it seems it was the folks in the past who made some dumb mistakes and we're all living with it now.

      Burning trolley cars was a standard practice across the country. Apart from trolley enthusiasts, there really wasn’t anybody around who wanted trolley cars, or trolley parts. It was a fast, cheap way to seperate what was worth something (scrap metal) from what was not (wooden trolley bodies, benches, etc). It’s terribly sad to watch, does make you wonder if there wasn’t something else that could have been done, but it’s just “how it was done” back then. Pretty much every trolley line in the area used this method to dispose of their old wooden trolley cars.
