the 1920's and '30's, streetcars were popular in most cities.
The Fort Smith Trolley Museum features a working, fully-restored
1926 electric streetcar that makes regular half-mile runs
between the Fort Smith National Cemetery and a west-end
stop at the Varsity Sports Grill or Garrison Avenue (Main
Street). Tickets can be purchased at the Fort Smith Museum
mentioned above. Inside the Trolley Museum - a stop on the
route -- is a fascinating collection of old railroad passenger
cars, engines, old Fort Smith buses, and other transportation
artifacts.
