Great Gorge Route : ウィキペディア英語版 | Great Gorge Route
The Great Gorge Route or Niagara Belt Line was a trolley belt line encompassing the Niagara Gorge, operated by the International Railway and Niagara Gorge Railroad. Many dignitaries rode this line and they used to use a flat car with search light to illuminate the Niagara Whirlpool at night (during the tourist season). ==Beginning== In 1895, the International Railway Company (IRC) established the Great Gorge Route scenic attraction. This electric trolley line ran from Niagara Falls (Prospect Park) to Lewiston, NY along the banks of the Niagara River. The trolley line ceased in 1935, victim to the Depression and the change in tourist transportation preferences (bus and automobile).〔http://wnyheritagepress.org/photosofweek/gorgeroute/gorgeroutedetail.htm〕
