A new/old trolley line running nearly a mile from the History San Jose Trolley Barn of the California Trolley and Railroad Corporation (CTRC) down Senter Road to Happy Hollow Children’s Park will be inaugurated at 11:00 AM on June 3, next Wednesday at San Jose’s Kelley Park. This historically significant establishment of a trolley service along Senter Road is open to the public and will feature a ribbon-cutting by San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed, City Council members, San Jose Rotary President Bert George and other dignitaries. This new donor-constructed and volunteer-operated service featuring free rides on the beautifully-restored historic trolley cars will serve the Happy Hollow Park and Zoo, the Leninger Center, the Japanese Friendship Garden, the Rotary Office, and History San Jose. The free rides will be available to the public after the inauguration ceremony.
