Notes:

Originally one of 32 cars purchased in 1912 by the City of Providence for the Broad Street line, operated by United Electric Railway until 1939 when buses started to displace streetcars. Purchased 1940 by Leo Levallee, converted it into a ten-seat diner opened in 1941. Later run by Samuel Richer, 1956 to its closing in 2000 after it was catastrophically hit by a car. Recovered by Dick Shappy of Providence and removed for restoration back to its original state.
