Third Ward Railway
The Third Ward Railway, an electric street trolley line in Syracuse, New York, was established in 1886 and ran a distance of commencing in Park Avenue and terminating at Solvay Process Company in Solvay, a suburb.〔 A second extension was open for business on July 4, 1889, when a branch was added from West Genesee Street to the shore of Onondaga Lake, known as "lake shore."〔
The company merged with Syracuse Consolidated Street Railway in 1890, after an agreement was made that allowed the new company to lease the lines.
==History==
The Third Ward Railroad was organized in 1886 and the road was put in operation in 1888. Its line extended from Salina Street on West Genesee Street to West Street and from there to Park Avenue and Willis Avenue with final termination at Solvay Process Company at Sixth North Street (now Gere Avenue) in Solvay, New York, a suburb of Syracuse.〔 A second extension was opened in 1889 that ran from West Genesee Street to lake shore (Onondaga Lake).〔
Syracuse was one of the first cities in the United States to adopt electricity as a transportation motive power. The city operated its first electric car in 1889 over the lines of the Third Ward Railway Company. An attempt was made to convert the old horse-drawn cars; however, this was not successful and in 1890, the company purchased complete new equipment and cars.
