1935: The End of the Trolley Era in Trenton

I was only an infant of 2 years old when Trenton converted from the trolley to buses. My older brothers tell of their occasional trips to downtown Trenton on a Trenton trolley. There is still evidence of the trolley era over in Hamilton Township near the intersection of Sylvan Avenue, where the trolley veered off of Liberty Street and journeyed to points north. The route is quite obvious at the intersection of Newkirk and Camp Avenues where there is still a huge island dividing the road.
