My memory might be foggy on facts, so bear with me...I seem to remember the trolley line that went from Frederick Maryland to Thurmont, Md towed a flat car/gondola type to carry goods. I worked with a fella that would NOT grant passage or sell part of his property back to newer owners of said trolley line. Additionally, he told me that when the line was initially abandoned, there is a flatcar "that was towed behind said trolley" abandoned, lying in his backyard. Just FYI, the new owners were trying to restart the line for a tourist attraction. Heard and discussed this @ 25 years ago!
