I was only seven in 1956 and don't remember the trolleys...we could use a good trolley or light rail on Staten Island...

I was also seven at this time and did not live far from the photo's location then either.   My parents must have known about the demise of the trolleys and I did get to ride this one near the end.   I believe this was known as the Vanderbilt Line and it matched the Culver Line 'F Train' above, till about Ave. I or so.

Don't forget the northeast power failure, exactly 50 years ago today.  If you happen to have the CPK climo for that day could you post it.  I think temps. were on their way down that evening.  Just curious.
