I'm 49 and I can remember my mom telling me the stories of my Great-grandfather. He helped build this Trolley Line..and unfortunately meeting his death by Trolley also. He was hit and killed by one here within Washington County. Thank you for sharing,no matter how old this video is.

Great video. As an 8-12 year old boy from 1958-62 we often went from Baltimore to Hagerstown. I remember myn Pop pointing out the old right-of-way along old Rt. 40 and just imagined seeing the interurban cars going up and down those steep hills.

We need to bring transit back to Frederick

If they had just modernized this system instead of destroying it, Frederick and Hagerstown would have been such a better place

Great job 😃

Nice

I’m so happy to have seen this. I clearly remember because I rode the last trolley from Thurmont to Frederick. My uncle, Earl Oden, called my parents in Harrisburg and Dad gathered us and drove down to Frederick, meeting Earl and his wife Margaret..and perhaps Uncle John (Wilburn). All of them grew up in Frederick and Thurmont. My father was a news photographer so I helped with his Speed Graphix and flashbulbs. Uncle Earl brought a case of cold beer. I was 15 years old so the history didn’t interest me as much as the novelty and fun that we had. I’m going to see if I can find the photos.

The last trolley in Hagerstown made its last run in February 1947, a month before I was born. I wish I would have asked my mother if she rode the trolley up until then. I might have ridden on it. Inside her, of course.

I really enjoyed the show I know some of those places and can remember a couple thank you

Your photo blending from "then to now" is amazingly good and on target. Very nice to see this!

Excellent, thank you.

Nice work!!

Thanks for making this presentation. Did the H&F actually intersect with the B&O branch that went to downtown Frederick?

Thanks for producing and posting this. It must have taken a lot or research on your part. I've never heard of this most interesting little interurban. Makes me want to go explore when the weather improves.

Very Informative..Thank you.

Great memories of this trolley from Frederick to Yellow Springs. I used to pick up the FNP paper from the drop off at the sitting platform in Yellow Springs

cool see you there in chicago sounder JK

Too bad you didn't know that was coming You could have gone to Harpers Ferry to get it on the bridge.

yayz! i watched ^^

Definitley different! No doubt Yea my first thot was oh there goes a California train! Thanks for sharing!

I wonder if amtrak would get bi level's like the one's on sounder trains, much sleeker and nicer but they don't look good for long distance. But what the hell do i know.

is this near Baltimore??

Much more professionally done than mine of the Ellicott City B&O Museum. Good job!

do they have the elevator there yet?

Nice job guys!

KOOL!!!
