Excerpt from Electric Railway Journal, Vol. 73: June, 1929 With this objective in view, the railway requested the manufacturers to build that type of car, seating ap proximately 50 persons, which in their estimation would best meet the present-day street railway needs. All other details were left to the manufacturers, so that inch might produce the car which in his estimation was the vehicle having the greatest merchandising attractiveness. As was to be expected, no cars were available! The manufacturers have not in the past followed the practice of building standard models to deliver when an order is received. But this raises the old question: Could the manufacturers dispose of standard models successfully, just as the bus manufacturers do? It is still a matter of conjecture, and one that can be decided only by overcoming the inertia of following old practice adhered to by both railways and manufacturers. Certainly the manufacturers would welcome any move to bring about mass production with its resulting savings.
