SHARON Rewind a century to the age of streetcars. Sharon was one of the
top dogs in the industry.

The Sharon Historical Society, a fledgling group founded about a year ago,
welcomed Cole to its March meeting where he spoke about the streetcar era
in Sharon to a packed room of about 50 people.

Coles latest book, Ghost Rails XI Shenango Valley, has a section dedicated
to streetcars, or trolleys, and almost one-third of the book is dedicated
to the private mill railroad of the former Sharon Steel Corp.

He describes Sharon Steel as one of the most customized steelmakers in
America 1900 to 2000, a survivor of the 1981 American steel crash.
.
Cole devotes another 100 pages of the book to the streetcar and interurban
lines in New Castle, Youngstown and Sharon. He said that the streetcar
lines built in the city to transport mill workers.
