ALV. Here is an image by an unidentified photographer that was taken in the Lakemont section of Altoona, Pennsylvania, in early August of 1954. Shown here is Altoona & Logan Valley Electric Railway streetcar #70. In this context, it's just come down Lakemont Hill and is on one of its last roundtrip runs from Altoona to Hollidaysburg and back. The banner proclaims: "1891-1954: 63 Years of Electric Trolleys ~ Now They Go!" |
