Johnstown Traction Company
- Johnstown Traction Company
Johnstown Traction Company (JTC) was a street-railway system in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, United States. It was in existence from February 23, 1910 to June 11, 1960. Johnstown was one of the last small cities to abandon trolley service in the United StatesFact|date=June 2008. Many of the 1920 era cars went directly to museums, however none of the 17 more modern PCC streetcars were saved, many of their components having been salvaged for sale to European tram operators. Electric trolleybus service continued until 1967, at which point the system became bus only. In 1976, the private JTC would become the CamTran public transit system.
