The Red Car Trolley is a meter gauge (3 ft 3+3?8 in) tramway and transportation attraction at Disney California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. Construction began on January 4, 2010, and the attraction opened on June 15, 2012. The attraction features cars inspired by the Pacific Electric Railway's "Red Cars" that once traveled through much of Southern California, and provides transportation between the park's main entry at Buena Vista Street and Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood Land.
The line has two battery-powered trolley cars, numbered 623 and 717, built by Brookville Equipment, a manufacturer of diesel switcher locomotives and a rebuilder of classic trolley cars. The design of the Red Car Trolley rolling stock are inspired by the Pacific Electric "Hollywood" class cars, built in the 1920s.
PE Car 717, seen rounding the curve from "Sunset Boulevard" to "Hollywood Boulevard", is inspired by the 700-750 series trolleys built by the J. G. Brill Company in 1925, and wears a paint scheme similar to Pacific Electric's iconic Art Deco "wings" design. The car's number, 717, is a reference to the opening date of Disneyland (July 17, 1955).
In August 2024 it was announced that the Red Car Trolley would be closed in early 2025 make way for expansion plans for Avengers Campus. In December 2024, it was announced that the last day of operation for the attraction will be February 8, 2025, it will then close the following day on February 9.
