And more trolley stocks! The first one has a very interesting aerial view of Manhattan in the 1880s.

Nice Greg!

On the Detroit & Port Huron - is that a people guard on the front of the trolley? Similar to a cattle guard on a train?

These are great. One thing I don't need is to start another collection of something.

I can't say for certain, but it looks like one to me! It would definitely keep someone from falling under the wheels.
