Fairmount Park Trolley Bridge

The Fairmount Park Transit Company built artful stone bridges that spanned creeks and ravines in the pathway of the trolley line. The bridge shown in this photo is below Wynnefield Heights in West Fairmount Park. The Fairmount Park Conservancy and Terra Firma Trails are now constructing a “Trolley Trail,” designed to be “a continuous trail that follows the pathway of the scenic trolley that ran through the woods of West Fairmount Park in the early 20th century.”
