Brooklyn, NY Trolleys

An excellent video of the Brooklyn trolleys. My mother always tells me, when she was 10 years old, she used to ride the Coney Island Avenue 🚎 to her piano lessons. I also got to meet a few long time motormen, who actually operated the trolleys in Brooklyn

I'm 72 and remember seeing streetcars in downtown Brooklyn and open-platform cars on the Myrtle Avenue El.

As a kid I used to see the tracks for these poking through the asphalt all the time.

I remember the trolley running down Wilson Avenue (Brooklyn). Yeah, I'm that old.

Thanks so much for your video Suum.. I live in Brooklyn most of my live. Im 71, but I was young I used to see where these tracks underneath the elevated lines in the 50 and 60s. I never knew what they were for.. I only seen trolleys when I was going to college in Boston back in 1970. They were small and tight but a new experience to ride. Thanks for these videos by the way the Governor wants to make a a light rail from Bay Ridge to Woodside Queens.. I hope I'll be able to see it in my lifetime l would love to ride it.

Trollies on Nostrand Ave., Bergen Street and Rogers Ave. Easy to hitch on the back. Bikes always got caught in the tracks.

Back then in Queens the Trolleys ran there also.  Nice video of the trolleys in Brooklyn.

Really unique video 👍 Thank you for sharing and best wishes 🙂
