In addition to restoring and operating real streetcars, the Edmonton Radial Railway Society collects related documents and artifacts.
To date, we have collected items including photographs, tickets and transfers, reports, and uniforms related to the history of electric streetcars and light rail transit (LRT) across North America. Donations and acquisitions are being catalogued and stored for future generations according to the recommendations of the Alberta Museums Association.
Upon request, these items are available for research purposes. For inquiries please contact archives@edmontonstreetcars.ca
A selection of original ERR documents in our collection, including ridership records, schedules, and applications, can be accessed with the button below.
If you have items which you think may be of interest to the society please contact the ERRS archives to discuss their donation.

A library of streetcar related books and manuals is available to the members of the Edmonton Radial Railway Society. They can be made available to the public for research purposes.
The Edmonton Radial Railway Society operates on Treaty 6 territory, a traditional meeting grounds, gathering place, and travelling route to the Cree, Saulteaux, Blackfoot, Métis, Dene and Nakota Sioux. We acknowledge all the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit whose footsteps have marked these lands for centuries.
