'No matter where the rolling ambassadors for Cleveland would go, they would bring a smile to the faces of passersby and passengers alike.'
CLEVELAND, Ohio – Next week, an era will roll to an official stop in Cleveland when Lolly the Trolley finishes its 37-year run in Greater Cleveland.
The trolleys have not been operating for the last year and a half or so, she said. But as of Tuesday, May 17, they will find new life, moving to Clearwater, Florida. She said Lolly even carried wedding parties of some of the children of people who were married and sat aboard the trolley. Lolly was involved in more than 4,000 weddings over the years.
They had as many as 15 trolleys at one point but pared it to eight over the years. In almost four decades, about 150 people worked at Lolly the Trolley, which covered 3.1 million miles in its tenure.
