It was the IRT Composite cars that were sent to the Illinois Terminal Railroad during the war. All were scrapped afterwards.There is a photo of three Composites being pulled by an Illinois Terminal interurban on page 327 of the ERA's "The Elevated Railways of Manhattan" book. (the same or a different photo of this is also IIRC in The Interborough Fleet book). On page 326 of the same book there are two lists of the 54 Composite cars that were removed from IRT property and sold to the Illinois Terminal Railroad on June 23rd and July 1st, 1942 |
