Trolley number 55, a reminder of early 20th century transportation in the Seattle area, is on display at Heritage Park in Lynnwood.
How ironic. According to History Link.org, by 1912 people from Tacoma to Everett were able to commute to Seattle by rail. The ride from Alderwood Manor, where Lynnwood is now, was 45 minutes. Almost a century later later, rail service may hopefully come back to the entire region if Proposition 1 passes in the November election.
Cars and highways killed the trolleys and rail lines, now it's time for them to replace the cars.
