Gate City Trolley Debuts at Market
Greensboro, August 18, 2014 — Be among the first in Greensboro to experience a funtastic free ride on a new trolley bus service. It’s a free five minute ride to the Greensboro Farmers Curb Market, where you can pick up fresh fruits, veggies, deli spreads, and other lunch items to enjoy on site or to go.
The trolley was hand built and features wood accents on the exterior and interior seating, and ornate brass polls, which harken back to the 1920s style. The trolley is available for hire for special events from birthday parties to weddings. For more information, go to GateCityTrolley.com or call (336) 383-1515.
