Interurban and Streetcar railway in Syracuse, New York, flourished in the city until the automobile, airplane and bus took its place.

The trolley or streetcar served travel within the city limits of Syracuse as early as 1859.

In the beginning they were either horse-drawn or fueled by steam and by the end of the 19th century they were electric driven.

The city was one of the first in the United States to adopt electricity as a transportation motive power.
