Notes

#The Cambridge Horse Railroad was the first Street Railway in Boston, opened in 1856 . In 1897 the Tremont Street Subway was built downtown to take streetcars off the street; this subway is still used by today's Green Line . The first section of surface trackage still in use was in place by 1872 on Huntington Avenue , and is now used by the Green Line "E" Branch . Currently the Ashmont-Mattapan High Speed Line also runs as a Streetcar line.
#The Newark City Subway opened in 1935 , but streetcar lines opened way before then. The only section still in use is the Subway.
# The Rochester Subway used Streetcar -style vehicles, but had underground sections, much like Boston 's Green Line and the Newark City Subway . The Rochester Subway was also used for freight until 1957 .
