Seller: CorgiPack, Fulton, NY, U.S.A.
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Fine. Appears as new and unread. Includes bibliographical references (p. 148) and index. 152 p. : ill., maps ; 23 cm. A crowd gathers after car # 1 jumped the track and plunged into Rondout Creek on February 19, 1907. It was one of several mishaps that occurred during the era when tracks wound through the streets of Kingston and trolley cars ran as frequently as every ten minutes. The ordinariness of today's urban public transportation makes it difficult to understand the passion with which the media and the traveling public embraced electric trolleys as they replaced horsecars. Minute details of trolley line construction and operation were eagerly reported by Kingston and Rondout newspapers, and a fifteen-minute delay in service brought reporters scurrying to discover the cause. The big story, however, was the rivalry between two competing lines: the Kingston City Electric Railway Company and the Colonial City Railroad Company. Glendon Moffett specializes in transportation histories for the mid-Hudson Valley. Other works chronicle the rise and fall of the New Paltz trolley line, the Poughkeepsie-to-Highland ferry and the ferries of Rondout, Kingston, and Rhinecliff. 152 pages.
