The front of 355#355 is one of my most favorite car in appearance. it has been done so nicely. There has been a lot of good hard work involved into restoring this one. Once it is running it will probably be one of the most popular cars they run.
now for some history:
Car #355 was built in 1902 by J.G. Brill. It operated on the Fairhaven and Westville RR until that line was bought by the Connecticut Company in 1910. #355 was then re-numbered to Connecticut co. #663 and was moved to the New Haven division. Then in 1948 it was sold to CTM.
Thanks to Trevor for his help in getting the history of 355
While being restored it was re-numbered back to #355 because it was moore original for the car.
