Horse car and trolley car scenes in a film made by the Union Street Railway Co. almost a century ago. An extraordinary, high quality document.

Horsecar #10 has been part of the collection of the Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport ME since 1954. It is currently on Track 1 of our Highwood Exhibit Barn. Unfortunately the museum has no horses to demonstrate how it works!

This was when New Bedford had reached its population peak, and all the textile mills were in full production. Also, Union Street Railway, had the longest stretch of profitability of any street railway in Massachusetts.

Even in the 21st century, you can still find some some history under the asphalt on certain streets of New Bedford. :)

When new Bedford had it going on, if these people could see what it's become their heads would explode from disbelief

Any chance of getting an unedited digitized copy of the entire film? There are some great views of the old Fort Phoenix Pavilion and more that have been excised from this version.

Both of my Italian grandpas worked at Union st. Railway Company during 1921. I wonder if he’s in here somewhere’s.

Swastica 7 20"?

At 7:20, notice the swastika on the awning on "Browne's" soda, cigar and candy shoppe. I know some of the meanings of that symbol are, "good fortune" or "well being". My how times have changed. That would never work in America's politically "correct" environment of today...... just noticing something interesting.
