The Travel Trolley celebrates five years of seeing the world

The Travel Trolley is celebrating five years of chronicling interesting places to visit, travel news and great places to eat.

The Atlanta-based website, which launched in June 2009, focuses on visiting historical places and roadside oddities. While the site features travel news, it isn’t the typical travel news website and instead focuses on a more whimsical approach to covering travel.

The Travel Trolley is the sister site of Railfanning.org, a site dedicated to ferroequinology, and ExpressTelegraph.com, a site focusing on politics.
