[edit]I added some more information about this system and will add more when I get a chance to look at my books to pick up important dates and names. I changed the listing order of Fort Worth and Dallas since the line was a Fort Worth based company. This company was very aggressive at fighting the encroachment of the automobile and took steps that kept it profitable through the Depression. I will expand that section soon and hope to address some of the reasons why the company gave up the fight in 1934.

[edit]"In 1905 the street cars were moving at 8 mph, but by 1923 the speed had picked up to 10.1 mph." This quote must have been talking about city streetcars or the contributor forgot to say average speed. At a distance of approximately 30 miles, the trip would have been between 3 and 4 hours at this speed and we know from published schedules this was not the case.
