Johnstown Traction Company

For most of its existence it was primarily a street-railway system, but in later years also operated rubber-tired vehicles.

JTC operated trolley (tram) service in Johnstown from February 23, 1910 to June 11, 1960.

Johnstown was one of the last small cities to abandon trolley service in the United States.

Efforts to sell the 16 then-surviving PCC cars intact were unsuccessful, and in 1962 they were scrapped, but many of their components were salvaged and sold to the Brussels, Belgium tram system,[2] reused in the last series of single PCC trams (7156–7171 [fr]), which ran from 1970 until February 2010.

[citation needed] JTC's system also included electric trolley buses, the first route of which was opened on November 20, 1951.
