History

[edit]

Public transit in Logansport began with mulecars in 1883, with the Logansport Street Railway Co. From 1891 to 1892, the mulecars were replaced with streetcars, which in turn were replaced by buses in 1932.[2][unreliable source?] The Logansport city bus added Saturday service in 2016, alongside extended hours and new stops.[3]
