Description:
The Manitou Trolley Car No. 23 ran from Charlotte to Manitou Beach, 1910's. The Manitou rail line delivered passengers to a number of summer hotel resorts along the shore of Lake Ontario. The "busy season" was considered the end of July through the beginning of September. A lack of profitability and the increased popularity of the automobile contributed to the decline of the electric trolley and the Manitou Line ceased service in 1924.
