More Carbarns

Last week we looked at the car barns of Cleveland after the formation of Cleveland Railway. Of course, all trolley systems needed barns and maintenance facilities. Here are a few more city facilities located in Northern Ohio.

Akron’s Northern Ohio Traction & Light, later Akron Transportation Company’s Kenmore barns and shop was a major operation. Constructed in 1913, it had a capacity of more than 100 cars. All pics are from Columbus Metropolitan Library. 1) Kenmore Barns, Akron, 2) Kenmore Barns, Akron, ATC #2030 over maintenance pit, 3) NOT&L Barn, Canton, 4) Community Traction Co #857 at the barn, Toledo and 4) Lorain Street Railway cars #202 & #203 in car barn.
