'''Arkansas Power and Light''' (AP&L) owned forty-three miles of electric street trolley lines in central Arkansas, carrying a total of 10.5 million passengers, in 1933. The 1935 Public Utility Holding Company Act and World War II rationing pressured AP&L into divesting itself of electric trolleys owned through its wholly-owned [[Capital Transportation Company]]. The company and its franchise were transferred to [[P. E. McChesney]] and the Courtesy Transportation Company on November 14, 1950, which in turn was reorganized as the [[Capitol Transportation Company]] operated by [[F. Norman Hill]].
