The Twin City Rapid Transit company ran electric-powered trolleys in Minneapolis and St. Paul from 1891 to 1954. At its peak in the 1920s, the transit system operated over 900 streetcars on more than 500 miles of track. A section of track and this streetcar are preserved as a museum at Lake Harriet.
