Williams 2011 Catalog CELEBRATING the 40th ANNIVERSARY of WILLIAMS 2011 marks the 40th anniversary of Williams, founded in 1971 by Jerry Williams. Williams Reproductions LTD began as a manufacturer of replicas of highly collectable tinplate trains. The company quickly grew with the Golden Memories series in the mid-1970s and replicas of Lionel® classics such as the FM TrainMaster. Continuing with the introduction of scale-sized locomotives for 3-rail track in the ‘80s, Williams has always been an innovator in O Gauge model railroading. In the 1990s, the company built upon its achievements with the development of new diesels, passenger cars, rolling stock, and an expanded Golden Memories line. In late 2007, Bachmann Trains acquired the assets of Williams. Today, Williams by Bachmann continues to manufacture classic postwar and “hi-rail” trains sets, locomotives, rolling stock, and accessories in the tradition of the Williams name. Come celebrate this special anniversary with us as we look forward to reaching our next decade of excellence.

Passengers could pay the waiting motorman as they boarded at the front and exited at the center of the car, an arrangement which reduced stop times, improved schedules, and increased efficiency. Though designed originally for Cleveland, the Peter Witt Streetcar went on to service in cities throughout the world from the 1930s until the early 1960s.

  • Cta 2016 Historical Calendar Cta 2016 January
    cta 2016 Historical Calendar cta 2016 January Chicago Motor Coach Company (CMC) bus #434, manufactured by the Ford Motor Company, was part of a fleet of buses operated by the Chicago Motor Coach Company, one of the predecessor transit companies that were eventually assimilated into the Chicago Transit Authority. The CMC originally operated buses exclusively on the various park boulevards in Chicago, and became known by the marketing slogan, “The Boulevard Route.” Later, service was expanded to operate on some regular streets not served by the Chicago Surface Lines, particularly on the fringes of the city. Chicagoans truly wanted a unified transit system, and it was for this reason that the Chicago Transit Authority was established by charter in 1945. The CMC was not one of the initial properties purchased that made up CTA’s inaugural services on October 1, 1947; however, it was bought by CTA in 1952.

    BSRA Entertainment Report for August 1, 2015 LONG FORM (for historical record) Entertainment Report for August 1, 2015 August 1, 2015. San Francisco's F Line. Peter Ehrlich has been an operator on San Francisco's F Line until 2005, and has operated heritage and modern streetcars, and even buses. Tonight, he presented San Francisco's famous F Line, America's most successful heritage streetcar line, with the digital slideshow being accompanied by handouts of the F Line's streetcar roster and route map. The Market Street Railway is a private booster organization that supports the F Line, but does not run it; it has offices in the Flood Building (which we got to see later in the show). It is not cirectly related to the Market Street Railway Company of 1857 - 1944, although it is named after this transit company. San Francisco's Municipal Railway (MUNI) runs the F Line, and is also responsible for maintining the streetcars, and charges the same fare for riding on them (the only MUNI vehicles that charge a different fare are the cable cars). As Peter's first images showed us, the F Line began official operation on September 1, 1995, with a 20 streetcar parade led by the Blackpool "boat tram" (built in 1934) that the F Line had at the time; however, much work had already been done to establish it by this time, for it was an outgrowth of the San Francisco Historic Trolley Festivals that started in 1983 to serve as a replacement tourist attraction while the cablecar system was shut down for major overhaul from 1982 - 1984.
