Also, look at the rear truck... I cannot tell, but i think this car would only fit on BMT type lines due to the height of the roof, so it is also probably ten feet wide. It is probably some sort of ex- interurban railcar or something, they too sometimes used cowcatchers. Also, sperry has a railcar that looks like a PCC that i see at the PATH yards sometimes.


here is a photo of an interurban railcar...it looks similar...




Here is a photo of an old brill interurban car
Those cars there lasted in service for about 60 years. Robust, they were.


But anyways, i doubt that was an Lo-V rebuild. They wouldn't change it to look completeley different, especially, they wouldn't remove the storm door, it is definately an old interurban car.
