The Main Street Trolley is a unique, inexspensive, and fun way to get around downtown Memphis. The cars themselves are refurbished 1920's street cars, including some reproductions. The line runs in an enormous circle including Main Street, the Pyramid, and Riverside Drive. There are 20 stops along the way where passengers can get on or off. Fare is $0.60 each way or $2.50 for an all-day pass. Exact change is required. Wheelchair accessable. Line stops running at 6 PM on Sundays. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherPhone: 901-577-2640

The Memphis Area Transit Authority operates three downtown lines of vintage street cars or trolleys. They are a great way to get around to many of the sights in and around the downtown area and also just to take to get nice views of the Mississippi River. The trolley fleet is mostly made up of restored Portuguese and Australian street cars some dating back to 1909. They look brand spanking new and are very attractive. Fares are $1.00 per ride or you can get a 2-trip pass for $1.50, a one-day pass for $3.50, or a 3-day pass for $8.00. There are also other pricing options and discounts for seniors and persons with disabilities.
Service is pretty extensive as well. All three lines operate 7 days a week with the more popular Riverfront and Main Street lines running every 10 minutes. Go to the website to get the details on schedule. This website also has a nice write-up on the history of this restored line: http://world.nycsubway.org/us/memphis/ Leave a Comment

There are two trolley lines in Memphis. One is a circle which goes along Riverfront and around to Main. In the middle of Main, you can transfer to the Madison Street Trolley.
We got off at Madison. There was no trolley stop station for transferring to the Madison car, but eventually, one came and we transferred. The main feature of the Madison car was going by the Wonderbread bakery, which you can tell by smell alone. At the end of the line, we paid again (another $1.00) and got another transfer. We picked up a lady in a wheelchair when we went over Presley Blvd on the way back Leave a Comment

 Trolley in downtown Memphis by myrtleLeave a Comment Theme: Other

Main street trolley is a cheap and ideal way to see some of memphis. The trolleys are authentic vintage trolley cars. The River front loop is a 2.5 mile stretch and takes you around the town and along the mississippi river. You can buy a one day pass and can jump on and off at all of the sights. Or just ride the loop! Leave a Comment

These are really old, but you can tell they're maintained very regularly. They look completely new on the inside, freshly polished and all. More or less everywhere they go is within walking distance, but when you're sick of walking and are willing to cough up $1, you'll be taken wherever you want and still get a good view.
NOTE: Coming into Memphis, several Memphians told me the trolleys are $0.75. That was absolutely not my experience. They're a full dollar. So don't worry too much about having quarters. Leave a Comment
