SUMMARY:Trolleyology: Meet Me Beneath Public Square: The Saga of Cleveland's Subways
DESCRIPTION:Join PTM staff\, volunteers\, and members for our Zoom series\, Trolleyology! These programs feature Pennsylvania transit history topics and tales of our collection that you can experience from home. Registration is required but free of charge. Donations are welcome and encouraged. \n  \nMeet Me Beneath Public Square: The Saga of Cleveland’s Subways\nJuly 16\, 2024 – 7 PM ET – Presented by Dr. Craig Semsel \n\nREGISTER HERE \n  \nThis presentation will address various plans to build a Cleveland subway.  It will look at three distinct periods of time (Progressive Era\, 1920s\, 1950s) when planning reached a fairly advanced stage and the people of Cleveland voted on whether or not to go forward with construction.  Despite the optimism of their promoters\, only one small subway was ever built.  We will look at the subway that got built\, and two “near misses” that got away… \n  \nThis program will be recorded and available at a later date on the PTM YouTube channel. \n  \nTrolleyology presentations will continue on a regular or semi-regular basis. Interested in presenting? Email Kristen at kfred@patrolley.org! We’re specifically looking for programs related to the Trolley Era in general\, Pennsylvania transit history\, or stories about our collection. Please join our e-mail list to stay up-to-date with program announcements and other PTM news! \n*For the best experience\, we recommend downloading Zoom in advance. \nNOTE: This is a virtual event

SUMMARY:Full Day Photo Shoot
DESCRIPTION:The Pennsylvania Trolley Museum will host a full day photo event on Monday\, October 14 from 9:00 AM to approximately 9:30 PM. \nThis unique opportunity offers photographers the chance to capture images of antique streetcars at various areas around the museum. Scenes include a brick-paved street with safety island\, an early 1900s trolley station\, rustic woodlands\, and more. The day will be broken into three sessions (morning\, afternoon\, sunset/evening) with ample time for lunch and dinner between sessions (off-site\, not included). Mobility note: this photo excursion involves getting on an off the streetcar and walking on uneven terrain. \nThe resulting images will evoke nostalgia and a fondness for days gone by. Photographers will have the opportunity to shoot up to 10 streetcars individually and as part of a scene\, with motormen in period-appropriate clothing. Streetcars will be lit after dark with continuous-source LED lights providing time for attendees to photograph each scene from multiple angles. \nPhotographer Tom Pawlesh will coordinate and light the photo shoot. Tom is a retired airline pilot and widely published wildlife & nature and aviation photographer. Tom volunteers as a vintage streetcar operator and instructor at the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum and provides many of the museum’s marketing photos. \nThe price per attendee is $125. \n  \nREGISTER HERE\n  \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				A view of PA Trolley Museum Volunteer Blvd.
