| | | Trolley summers Dana Point City Manager Mike Killebrew skips the car (and traffic and parking headaches) and hops the beach town’s trolley a couple of times a week. In much of south Orange County, visitors and residents can get around during the summer just using the local trolley routes. It’s a great way to experience the coast, riders said. “People stay longer than if you just had your car right there next to you. They tend to walk around more and enjoy what we have to offer,” Killebrew said, adding that, “Honestly, I’ve never seen someone on a trolley upset. They’re always happy and enjoying life.” See more. |
