Lake Shore Electric Railway, Electric railway museum in Cleveland, Ohio, US
The Lake Shore Electric Railway collection included 31 restored trolley cars and electric locomotives representing different periods of American transportation development.
The museum emerged from the Gerald E. Brookins Museum of Electric Railways and Trolleyville USA, operating until 2005 before relocating to Dock 32 near Cleveland Browns Stadium.
The museum kept artifacts from the original Lake Shore Electric Railway, which connected Cleveland to Toledo and served as a major transportation link in early 1900s Ohio.
The collection moved to the Port of Cleveland in 2006, adjacent to the Great Lakes Science Center, making it accessible to visitors interested in transportation history.
In 2009, the museum's collection dispersed to ten different railway museums, with one 1914 Kuhlman streetcar later donated to the Illinois Railway Museum.
