Williamstown – Electric Trolley & Road Gang in Summer

An undated photograph of the summer work crew on the electric trolley line that ran between Williamstown and Lykens, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.

The three workers are not identified.

According to Gene D. Gordon, Little Railways of the Lykens Valley, this trolley car, No. 536, was in use at the time, about 1913, for hauling work materials and crew members and was not then used for passenger service.
