Trolley History

The original public transit system of Cheyenne was the Cheyenne Street Railway Trolley System of 1887. The venture failed after 5 years , deemed unprofitable. 
After a 16 year hiatus, trolleys returned with the incorporation of the Cheyenne Street Railway Co. The company operated multiple lines from 1980-1924. A 20-acre amusement park located at the end of the spur line helped generate summer business. The company was purchased and transformed into a bus line.

Trrolleys  returned to Cheyenne in May of 1988, and have been serving our tourists and community ever since.
