Description

A charming way to check out Astoria's sites, the Astoria Riverfront Trolley was built from wood and steel in 1913 and started life on the streetcar tracks of the San Antonio Traction Company in Texas. Officially owned by the San Antonio Museum of Art, the trolley is on loan to Astoria at the cost of $1 per year--with the stipulation that Astoria is responsible for restoring and maintaining it. The trolley was indeed lovingly restored in 1999 by local volunteers in Astoria, who refurbished the wood, replaced the canvas cover, and restored a number of other details. The trolley's run starts at the Astoria Red Lion Inn and it runs out to the foot of 39th St and back, with a number of stops along the way. You can also wave the down the trolley and hop aboard!
