jersey shore was once a major player in the railroad industry. in 1901, the new york central and hudson river railroad announced it would build large rail car shops near avis, west of jersey shore, on the far side of pine creek. to induce workers and businesses to favor jersey shore over competing towns, entrepreneurs acquired land and built the jersey shore electric street railway, a trolley line running from the city to the new york central shops. in 1905, a second trolley line, the jersey shore and antes fort railway, was put into service between the city and the pennsylvania railroad station in antes fort, to the southeast. these two trolley lines changed jersey shore from a city with no railroad connection to a city with two. what had formerly been a minor stop on the west branch canal and stagecoach lines was transformed into an industrial boomtown. over 1,000 skilled mechanics were employed at the car shops. they were able to earn wages that far exceeded the normal income of the average worker in lycoming county at the time. other early industrial ventures in jersey shore included the american balance valve and machine works (a maker of railroad valves), the susquehanna silk mill and the jersey shore creamery company.
