While researching Lancaster County’s trolley service, a repeatedly referenced resource was Seeing Lancaster County from a Trolley Window. The book, published in 1910, provided a first-hand account of riding the various trolley lines that radiated from Lancaster City to the seven corners of the County.
The publication served half as a promotional puff piece for the Lancaster area and half as a historical overview of the history and local architecture. Towns profiled include Manheim, Lititz, Ephrata, Adamstown, Terre Hill, Quarryville, Lancaster, and Pequea.
Being a firm believer that “information wants to be free,” I have embedded the document here for your educational enjoyment.
