Then and Now

So continuing with the streetcar from yesterday. This streetcar was built in St. Louis in 1912. It was in service here in Edmonton until 1951. After taken out of service it ended up on a farmer's field here in Alberta.
When the Edmonton Radial Railway began operating they found the streetcar as it was in the top photo. Bought it and restored it to original condition
