The red trolley eases away from the Hershey History Center and through a town where chocolate and industry have shaped streets and palates alike. Trees lean over Chocolate Avenue as the vehicle moves at a relaxed pace, stopping at compact restaurants, bakeries and kitchens where chefs step out to explain a dish while aromas thread back to the trolley.
