New Jersey's Trolley Heritage is a photographic essay of trolley
cars that once served Atlantic City, Ocean City, and Wildwood, plus
the modernized Newark City subway, along with the new Hudson-Bergen
Light Rail Line and River Line. From 1889 to 1955, electric trolley
cars served commuters and vacationers in Atlantic City. Between
1938 and 1955, Atlantic City operated twenty-five streamlined
Brilliners known as the Miss America Fleet, the largest fleet of
these cars in service in the United States. The Shore Fast Line
connected Atlantic City via Pleasantville and Somers Point to Ocean
City. A portion of the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines was used
by the Shore Fast Line. Open summer cars operated in Wildwood until
it closed in 1945. After trolley service ended in Atlantic City,
Newark's City Subway was New Jersey's only remaining trolley line
until New Jersey Transit opened the Hudson-Bergen Line in 2000, and
by 2011, linked North Bergen with Hoboken, Jersey City, and
Bayonne. New Jersey's Trolley Heritage documents an important part
of the state's trolley history including the River Line, which
opened in 2004, connecting Camden with Trenton.
