Streetcar Customers

Monterey, CA
MST purchased a fleet of 6 American Heritage Streetcar trolley replicas from Optima Bus through a public/private partnership with the City of Monterey, Monterey Bay Aquarium, the Federal Transit Administration and Municipal Services Group, a public sector financing specialist. MST attributes their success to the appeal of the trolleys themselves. The service offers an easy way for people to move around downtown Monterey and along the waterfront shops, restaurants and attractions without traffic or parking congestion.

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
With their nostalgic charm, MetroTransit's 19 American Heritage Streetcars are bringing record crowds into the city's Bricktown historic district. While MetroTransit had predicted ridership of 640 passengers per day within five years of the "Oklahoma City Spirit" trolleys introduction, that goal was reached in only four months.

Providence, Rhode Island
As increased tourism in Providence created parking difficulties and traffic congestion, the Rhode Island Public Transit Authority (RIPTA) purchased a fleet of 20 natural-gas-powered American Heritage Streetcars for a new service called "LINK," which provides access to anywhere in the city for only fifty cents. The LINK Trolleys have attracted many new riders who traditionally have not used public transportation.
