Old trolley?

[trolleyboy]

Hi lotus I have a couple of suggestions for you.I'm Canadian so I don't know your town well, so I won't have specific info on the line your asking about, but there are a couple of ways or places you can look for the information.#1 Local city hall records and old US land surveys from the area should show you where the lines ran, and how long they were operated. If you are luckey there may even be photographs. A local city museum( if you have one, may have info on the line for you as well ) Another longer shot is go the the museum that I'm a member of. We have links to the various simialr museum's in the US that are similar to ours. The info you want is likley in one of these US museum's archieves. Good luck on your hunt. www.hcry.org look under our junction links this will let you access the US trolley museums and any other related links that we have. Rob

Does anyone know anything about, or a good place to get some information about the trolleys that once ran through Caldwell, Idaho? I have had no luck on any search engines. Or the Nampa Museum, I was informed by a member of the Nampa Model Railroad Club that the museum had a library that might have old information on local railroads. The only way he said you could get anything out of it was to either ask for help (which seems knows less about railroads than I do) into looking, and after enough friendly harassment he might let you look for your self. My mother said that you could see the tracks down in Trolley Square, which sits very near the UP main in Caldwell, when she was little. Middleton also has a building called the Trolley Station. Any info would be appreciated.
