The Charlotte Historic Trolley Museum is a local museum in Charlotte, North Carolina. It commemorates the area’s early mode of transportation, the trolley.

Back in the days, before buses were even invented, people took electric streetcars, also known as trolleys, to go around Charlotte. This is why these vehicles have such impact on the local history, as they did see and even ushered in a great deal of developments in the area.

The Charlotte Historic Trolley Museum tells about these kinds of information. They have displays about the trolley’s role in the development of the area. The last trolley to operate around the city, the Number 85, also offers rides again, giving visitors a chance to experience such a historic trip.
