By the mid-1960s, many Midwestern systems were modernizing or phasing out electric coach operations, making images from this transitional moment especially valuable for regional transit history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"716\" data-end=\"1234\"\u003eThe image shows at least five trolley buses facing forward in a gravel or paved lot, their twin trolley poles raised and connected to the overhead wire network. Destination signs visible include West Main and Garage, indicating both revenue service and non-revenue movements within the system. Industrial buildings and a multi-story brick structure rise in the background, situating the scene within a working urban environment. The date stamp at the top margin reads APR 66, anchoring the scene firmly in spring 1966.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1236\" data-end=\"1525\"\u003eThe item shown in the listing is the exact item the collector will receive.
