Trolley Information
The trolleys are replicas of the streetcars that traveled the streets of Raleigh until 1932 when they were replaced by buses. Raleigh's first transit trip, taken on Christmas Day 1886, was in a trolley. Carry on the traditions of old by traveling through the Capital City in a streetcar this weekend. Transit trolleys are not available for rental.
