Streetcar Interior #1

Murch Morris

The interior of an older streetcar shows bench-style wooden seats on metal supports, windows that opened on both sides of the car, buzzers on posts between the windows so a rider could notify the conductor he wished to get off, and electric lights along the edge of the ceiling. Advertisements line the area just below the ceiling. On an overhead arch near the rear of the car is its number, 713; to the right is the name of the manufacturer, the J.G. Brill Co. of Philadelphia. The brake and drive works are at the far end of the car where the motorman was located.
