In the course of his research for Spokane Transit’s Central City Line, the Spokesman-Review’s Nick Deshais turned up a LOT of information on the history of Spokane’s streetcars. Unfortunately for him, he couldn’t use this cool stuff in his everyday reporting. But fortunately for us, he made a lot of it into a blog post instead.
So if you ever wondered how streetcars got their start in Spokane, and what happened to them, plus why a form of them is back again, check out the Getting There blog here.
