Check out the Old Time Erie blog

The Old Time Erie blog has some great old photos and clips... check out this photo of an Erie Coach Company bus in front of the Federal Courthouse in 1945.
The buses replaced the trolleys, and in the 1960s the Erie Coach Company became the Erie Metropolitan Transit Authority (EMTA).
Also at Old Time Erie, check out Erie Public Transit History 1867 to 1967 Erie PA ... horses, trains, trolleys, buses. It's fairly short and very interesting.
Lots of other old items on that blog as well.
