Johnstown Traction Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Johnstown Traction Company (JTC) was a street-railway system in Johnstown, Pennsylvania (February 23, 1910 - June 11, 1960). JTC was one of the last small cities to abandon trolley service. Many of the 1920 era cars went directly to museums, however none of the 17 more modern PCC streetcars were saved. In 1976, the private JTC would become the CamTran public transit system.
