Description
Chattanooga's 138-year public transportation heritage is marked by a complex and colourful history that spans over three decades. From horse-drawn streetcar lines to modern electric buses, the city's transit system has evolved significantly.
The story of Chattanooga's transportation heritage is unique in many ways. One notable example is the Lookout Mountain Incline Railway, which still operates today. The city's CARTA transit system has also innovated by introducing one of the largest fleets of battery-operated electric buses, which other transit companies use as a model for comparison.
This book explores Chattanooga's fascinating transportation history, providing insight into the city's public transportation heritage and its evolution over time.
