I went through a phase when I was about 9 where I read and reread the 1st Boxcar Children book. This book was a part of that phase. It didn‘t get read quite as much as the former, but a trolley car was almost as good as a boxcar. Rereading it as an adult, it is charming. Still has some 1940/50s gender issues, but other than mom telling dad he is the boss of the family, they are pretty mild. Plus, it has an amazing 1980s apple paperbacks cover.
