Wilkes-Barre Transit Trolley Bus 838 Sugar Notch Warrior Run 1950s Photo 3.5 x 6

This mid-century transportation photograph documents Wilkes-Barre Transit Company trolley bus 838 operating on the Sugar Notch–Warrior Run route in northeastern Pennsylvania.

The image shows car 838 in three-quarter front view beneath a web of overhead trolley wires, with twin poles raised and engaged. The side beltline lettering reads PHILA. SUBURBAN TRANS’N CO., while the circular side emblem identifies Wilkes-Barre Transit Company, reflecting the corporate relationship within the broader Philadelphia Suburban network. Utility poles, adjacent housing, and track infrastructure frame the urban Luzerne County setting.

Fleet number 838 is clearly visible on the nose and side, and the destination sign reads Sugar Notch Warrior Run. The reverse of the photograph is blank, with no postal use or writing present, reinforcing its character as an original transportation photograph rather than a mailed postcard.
