Steam & Excursion > Iowa Trolley ParkDate: 07/17/16 11:37 Iowa Trolley Park Author: livesteamer While exploring the Iowa Traction on Friday afternoon, I stumbled across something near the end of the Iowa Traction Railway tracks that is called the Iowa Trolley Park...is this an operating museum or not....sure looked like it had seen its better day. The PCC parked on the property appeared to be in very poor condition and the entire property is overgrown with weeds.

There is also a yard on the east side north side of the line that I wondered about also. The pole line is there, but no cars Posted from iPhone Date: 07/17/16 15:43 Re: Iowa Trolley Park Author: livesteamer In addition, the Iowa Traction has covered hoppers stored on both sides of the so-called "trolley park"...in a google earth view (today) you can see the cars that are stored on this line.
