Rochester Subway
The Rochester Subway operated in the old canal bed of the Erie Canal. It connected downtown Rochester with the GM carburater plant and used former New York State Railways Utica division cars until it was finally abandoned on June 30, 1956.  Several attempts to revive it using modern day LRT technology have been to no avail.
