The Camden Horse Railroad Company was one of the first car companies to take up the question of changing its motive power to electricity. The first city ordinance in this connection passed City Council on September 26, 1889, authorizing the company to erect poles and string wire along Market Street from the Ferry to Tenth Street, and thence east along Federal to 26th Street. This line was put into operation in June of 1890 and extended to Merchantville in September 1892, and thence to Moorestown in June of 1894. http://bit.ly/uwZ27W
