By Trolley, By Golly! New Hartford to Clinton, NY
This video re-traces the route of the Clinton trolley line beginning in the Village of New Hartford and ending in Clinton, 5 miles distant.
In late 1901, the Utica, NY trolley network was extended 5 miles, from the Village of New Hartford to the Village of Clinton. A survey of the proposed route extension was filed with the Oneida County Clerk in July of that year and permission to build track on public roads in the villages of New Hartford, Clinton and within the towns of New Hartford and Kirkland was soon granted. Additionally, parcels of land of from 12 private landowners in the towns of New Hartford and Kirkland were acquired. As it traversed private lands, the trolley was a mere a stone's throw from the tracks of the New York, Ontario & Western's Utica Division.
Construction of the line began in August 1901 and the inaugural run occurred on December 12, 1901. The final Clinton-bound trolley exited the car barn on Main Street, Utica, 11:45 pm the night of March 21, 1936 for the eighteen-mile round trip, a run which usually took about 90 minutes.
Aboard for the entire journey was Utica Observer-Dispatch reporter David H. Beetle. His piece about the last run appeared in the O-D on March 23rd and began thusly, We have always wondered what happened when a trolley company ran its very last car over any given line. Saturday night--and early Sunday morning we found out.
The Clinton car was delayed by a firetruck in downtown Utica, and passengers eventually included several Hamilton College students, a woman with a peacock blue hat who got on at Oriskany Street but declined to give her name and C.J. Jones, a foreman of the New York State Railways, the line's operator from 1912-1936, who stated, I helped build this roadbed more than 30 years ago. I just had to go on the last car.
Robert Gurley of New Hartford, a Utica-area trolley enthusiast and author of the book, Here Comes the Trolley, took two flash pictures of the trolley as it arrived in Clinton saying he wanted them for the Brill people who manufactured the car body and who also publish a magazine. Mr. Gurley rode the last run back to Utica, getting off at Downtown's Busy Corner.
Mr. Beetle, the newspaperman, was the only person beside R.J. Bliss, the motorman, who remained on board until the very end, when the final Clinton trolley reached the car barn across from Utica's Union Station, about 1:30 am. He wrote, We went with the intention of making a full log of the trip for posterity--or at least for our Monday morning readers. Eighty-three years on, I am thankful Mr. Beetle was aboard!
All the photos of the Clinton trolley (which was designated as route number 3) presented here were taken by Robert Gurley.
His first two photos show the trolley near 100 Genesee St, New Hartford (the old Barnum residence to which I delivered newspapers in the late 1970's).
Next, a colorized photo taken at the New Hartford loop, 1 mile west of the center of the Village. It is here where Utica-New Hartford trolleys made the loop back towards the Village and Utica and where Clinton-bound cars continued on their journey.
Mr. Gurley's next two photos present scenes along Utica Road (NYS Route 12B), in the Town of Kirkland. One photo shows the tracks looking north while the other features a trolley coming down the grade at the same location.
His final photo, the second colorized one, appears in the last moments of the video. It was taken at Clinton's Village Park, the line's final stop, most likely in the spring of 1936. Note the sign above the trolley, Stop End.
Though taken in Baltimore, the concluding photo nonetheless calls to mind the final late night/early morning trip so nicely chronicled by Mr. Beetle: one imagines a similar scene when the last Clinton trolley entered the Utica car barn during the wee hours of the morning on March 22, 1936.
Special thanks to John Ivory, my good friend, technical adviser and dronesman. This video would not have been possible but for his expertise (and patience!).
Also thanks to Sandra DePerno, Oneida County Clerk, Brian Howard, Executive Director of the Oneida County History Center, Rose Raymond, Jim Coulthart and John Burdick of the Clinton Historical Society, Jack Coughlin and John Taibi for their assistance.
