- Streetcars_in_North_America abstract "Electric streetcars were once the chief mode of public transit in scores of North American cities. The term streetcar (or sometimes trolley) is the name used by the residents of North America to describe such systems, rather than the European term tram or tramway. Most of the original municipal streetcar systems were dismantled in the mid-20th century. Today, only Toronto and New Orleans still operate streetcar networks that are essentially unchanged in their layout and mode of operation.Boston, Cleveland, Mexico City, Newark, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and San Francisco have rebuilt their streetcar systems as light rail systems. A number of other North American cities, starting with Edmonton, Calgary and San Diego, have installed new light rail systems (the successor transit mode to streetcars), some of which run along historic streetcar corridors and in a few cases feature mixed-traffic street-running operation like a streetcar. Portland, Oregon, Seattle, and Salt Lake City have built both modern light rail and modern streetcar systems, while Tucson and Atlanta have built new modern streetcar lines. A few other cities and towns have restored a small number of lines to run heritage streetcars either for public transit or for tourists.".
