Former Private Right-Of-Way For Trolley

As we head down the back road in Warrior Run that ends up as Front Street in the Hanover Section of Nanticoke, this strip of cinders and trees is all that is left of Private Right-Of-Way of a Trolley Line.

Much of the Trolley system in the Wyoming Valley is largely forgotten.
