Gomaco Trolleys In Galveston, Texas

Three enclosed, diesel-electric powered trolleys, #501, #502 and #504, were reconditioned for the Galveston Island Trolley line in Texas. The cars had been damaged by Hurricane Ike in 2008. Gomaco Trolley Company provided new diesel engines, new electronics, new electric generators, fresh paint, and restored the windows and doors.

The trolleys were delivered in 2020 and 2021, and the line was reopened for service on October 1, 2021. The Galveston Island Trolley line is 6.8 miles long, and operates between historic downtown Galveston and the Seawall.
