	Trolley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The trolley pole in turn derived its name from the "trolley wheel" that was formerly the chief means of contact between car and wire as the wheel "trolled" behind the moving car.
		Modern trolleys often do not use a trolley wheel (using a metal shoe with a carbon insert instead) or even a trolley pole, a pantograph being the preferred means of contact.
		Trolleys and trolley lines are also often described as light rail, especially if the line has significant off-street running.

	Replica Vintage Trolley Cars by John Smatlak
		In many cases, the Vintage Trolley lines are operated as part of the local transit system, and in other cases by a local non-profit organization, or by some combination of the two.
		A trolley can be an excellent way to circulate people between local attractions (and parking areas), and at the same time, the trolley ride itself becomes part of the experience, further enhancing the attraction.
		Vintage Trolley systems have an excellent track record of helping attract investment because the fixed nature of the trolley infrastructure implies permanence- it's something that's going to be there for a long time, a significant advantage over rubber-tired alternatives.
