About Amtran

On July 4, 1882, the first public transportation system for the city of Altoona began operation. Starting with $40,000 in company capital, the "City Passenger Railway Company of Altoona, PA" opened business with 18 horse cars. Later, due to the expense of the horses' feed and general care, the mode of power was switched to electric in 1891. In 1892 the Altoona & Logan Valley Electric Railway Company was developed with 18 electric cars. In June of 1923, the Logan Valley Electric Railway Company incorporated to become the Logan Valley Bus Company. One month later the first bus ran on the pleasant Valley Route. The fare for a railway car was seven cents while the fee for the bus was ten cents. During this period, employees of the Pennsylvania Railroad were the company's major customers. Hundreds of employees arriving for work would depart from the buses while railroad workers completing their shift would crowd onto the buses and head home. After 63 years of service, the Altoona & Logan Valley Electric Railway Company's last trolley run occurred on August 7, 1954. In order to protect public interest, on May 27, 1958, the city of Altoona and Logan Township voted to create the f...irst public transportation authority in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Transportation & Motor Buses for Public Use Authority. From 1958 through 1977, the authority was generally known as the Altoona & Logan Valley Bus Authority. In 1977 the Bus Authority adopted the business name of AMTRAN (for Altoona Metro Transit). Today, AMTRAN continues to service Blair County with a fleet of 29 buses and over 50 employees dedicated to making the community a better place.
