The concept of the trolley, particularly the streetcar or tram, was developed in the early 19th century, with significant contributions from inventors like Andrew Hallidie, who introduced the first successful cable car system in San Francisco in 1873. The term "trolley" itself is derived from the wheel or pole that draws electricity from overhead wires, and its development involved many engineers and inventors over time.
