Comments: These trolleys made up the 2nd series of
Fuller cars. Cars 341-349 & 355-357 were something of a 3rd series,
since they began as open trolleys. But, they were enclosed like the
rest of the series by 1922.
Original Portland Railway Co. numbers were 100-110 (for 341-349 &
355-357) and 111-140 (311-340). Like No.'s 303-310, these were three
compartment cars with large "smoker" vestibules, but they were built this
way new (i.e., not rebuilt from earlier single-truck trolleys).
No. 330 was unique. It had been rebuilt in 1912 with an extra
door added at each end for PAYE boarding (see its page).
Retirement: 1933.
Technical Notes: No.'s 312, 315, 318 & 322 had National
Straight Air type C brakes.
No.'s 313 & 314 had C&S trucks during a 1924 inventory.
Rebuilt to one-man operation in 1922.
No. 341 listed as unserviceable in 1928.
In 1929 No,.'s 349 & 355-357 received vestibule heaters from cars
102 & 139-140 (old C&S trolleys).
In 1932 No. 348 received vestibule heaters from No. 196. |
