PE Interurban #1001 - Pacific Electric |
| Description: |
This car was built by the Jewett Car Company of Jewitt, Ohio in the summer of 1913. The car had four Westinghouse 333-A-2 motors (100 hp), capable of 600-1200 volt DC operation for the San Bernardino Line. In 1948, Pacific Electric decided it was in need of a rail grinding car, and selected 1001 to be converted for such use and renumbered 00199. Modifications included the removal of the passenger seats, adding, water tanks for ballast, and converting one of the trucks by adding carborundum blocks for rail grinding. Pacific Electric employee and railfan Walter Abbenseth had grown sentimental about the old wooden interurban car and purchased 00199 from the PE. Walter moved the wooden interurban along with others to a new location - the Orange Empire Traction Company in Perris, CA in 1958. It became a member of the roster and can still run, at least in 2013, it could. |
