The first streetcar company in Fort Worth was the Fort Worth Street Railway Company. Its first line began operating in December 1876, and traveled from the courthouse down Main Street to the T&P Depot.<ref>{{cite book |last=Knight |first=Oliver |title=Fort Worth: Outpost on the Trinity |publisher=Texas Christian University Press |location=Fort Worth |isbn=0-87565-077-5 |page=85 |year=1990}}</ref> By 1890, more than 20 private companies were operating streetcar lines in Fort Worth. The Fort Worth Street Railway Company bought out many of its competitors, and was eventually itself bought out by the Bishop & Sherwin Syndicate in 1901.<ref>{{cite book |last=Knight |first=Oliver |title=Fort Worth: Outpost on the Trinity |publisher=Texas Christian University Press |location=Fort Worth |isbn=0-87565-077-5 |page=133 |year=1990}}</ref> The new ownership changed the company's name to the [[Northern Texas Traction Company]], which operated 84 miles of streetcar railways in 1925, and their lines connected downtown Fort Worth to TCU, the [[Near Southside, Fort Worth|Near Southside]], Arlington Heights, Lake Como, and the [[Fort Worth Stockyards|Stockyards]].
